I want to paint the ikea kallax. Is it the right one to stop peeling off paint? And is it true I do not need to sand it ?

Asked by: SJ
That's correct, SJ. As long as the surface is cleaned properly with a degreaser such as ammonia and water (1 cup of ammonia to a gallon of water), you can apply the Rust-Oleum Zinsser CoverStain Oil-Based Primer directly on the surface without sanding. Keep in mind that the product does take about 7-10 days to cure properly so you will not achieve full hardness until the curing has been completed. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 1

Any reason this won't be suitable underneath wallpaper pastes? Roman brand pastes suggest you use their primers but I'd prefer to use an oil-based product. I know many manufacturers like to recommend products from their own family, but I'm interested to hear from the HD community if they believe this to be OK. Thanks.
Asked by: Dean
Thank you for reaching out, Dean! Rust-Oleum Zinsser Cover Stain Oil-Based Primer is suitable for use on drywall surfaces. For the best results, you will want to ensure that the adhesive is suitable for use on oil-based coatings. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

They need to make the difference between the oil base primer and the water based cans different colors or something I bought the wrong one. They don't mix very well.It was my mistake not checking the label but change it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice primer for spraying I used this for the first time on an old dresser redo. This sealed everything up nicely including the rough sides to the drawers. I had to sand afterward but the surface is sooooo silky smooth. I used 220 paper and sanded very lightly, just to knock off overspray. Exquisite! I can not wait to put paint on this. It should lay out nice and flat and beautiful! I used this outside with a gravity fed gun and air compressor, I could smell the fumes through my respirator (not NIHOSH, I would like to get one specifically for this). This primer sands wonderfully after a couple of hours to a nice powdery finish, no gumming up and it feels VERY hard and not tacky at all like a latex primer. Also, after first coat of primer I filled all dings and scratches with drywall compound sanded flat and coated a second time with this primer. Provided a very nice finish and is nice and hard, should be very durable. This will be a dresser in a little girls room so will take some abuse. On the downside, clean up is not as easy as water based primer but I think it is worth it.
