Questions & Answers

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

Is the first coat supposed to be patchy ?

I applied a coat of this and it was hard to paint on . It looks patchy .
Asked by: Haydee
Thank you for reaching out! Since Rust-Oleum Zinsser Cover Stain Oil-Based Primer and Sealer is thinner then a traditional paint, thinner coats will be applied. This primer will trap stains in the paint film to prevent bleed through with the topcoat. If desired, a second coat can be applied after 1 hour. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 3

Zinsser Cover Stain Primer did an excellent job in covering and masking extensive ceiling water stains in sheetrock. It was easy to apply, and provided an excellent foundation for subsequently applying ceiling paint.

Product is thin, watery, and although says it can be applied to raw wood, has raised rough fibers on what was a smooth surface sign board. I'll have to sand and reapply the product. Missed my deadline delivery due to the extra steps involved.

I needed 3 coats keep the brown from showing through. The surface is not too smooth and will need to be sanded with fine paper. Three coats is a lot of paint to use and it could still use a fourth coat, as some areas are splotchy. Not my favorite primer for a wooden door.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Well, it did prime.. I’ve apllied many brands and types of primer, but this was my worst experience. I rolled a large surface with a smooth roller and the texture never leveled out. Instead of a quick sand before painting, I’m left with a few hours of sanding just to get something adequate.
