A:  Hi William, thank you for your question. Our Kilz 3 Premium Primer is a heavy-duty high-hide sealer and stain blocker. It's designed for tough spots and is a great option for sealing wood knots to ensure they don't bleed through to your topcoat. Have a great day! -Lina

A:  Hi Fred, thanks for your question. I wouldn't recommend using our Kilz 3 Premium Primer on a garage floor because it isn't recommended to be used in areas that will be driven on. Have a great day! -Ronald

A:  Hi GrandmaDede, thank you for your question. Kilz primers are not designed to be left uncoated as they are not formulated to perform like paint and are unable to withstand exposure to the elements for extended periods of time. We recommend top coating primers within 30 days of application to minimize dirt collection and chalking. So, after priming with Kilz3, follow with your paint of choice for long-lasting results. Have a great day! -Alex

A:  Hello, thank you for your question. We do not recommend Kilz Premium 3 Primer on PVC. Instead, we recommend using Kilz Adhesion Primer as this product is ideal for slick and tough-to-paint surfaces. Have a great day! -Giovanna

A:  Hi Steve, thank you for your question. Kilz Premium 3 Primer can be used on stucco and previously painted surfaces in good condition. You can then topcoat with water-based or oil-based paint. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna

A:  Hi Thomas, thank you for your question. If the surface remains chalky after cleaning the stucco, the best primer to use is Kilz Klear Primer. Then, you can topcoat with the paint of your choice after one hour or more. Good luck with your project! -Giovanna https://www.homedepot.com/p/KILZ-KLEAR-1-Gal-Clear-Interior-Exterior-Multi-Surface-Primer-and-Sealer-L220101/204064029
