Didn’t cover real well.

Very good product, it covers different shades and made it so easy for me to paint the wall like nothing happens before.

It's excellent. The best thing is that when you paint your hands or to clean rolls and brushes, you can do it simply with soap and water. In quick dry addition.

Began my project by priming with this product. Seemed ok. Tried to finish with Rustoleum paint. It would not stick to the primed surface!!!! Beaded up like water on glass. Strangest thing I have ever seen with paint. Cannot say whether the primer, the paint or both were bad. I suspect it may have been the paint. I had to finish the project with another brand's products. I would not risk using either one though.

Gives full coverage on the first try. I do recommend 2 coats though.

It was easy to stir (not a lot of sludge in the bottom of the can). It took 2 coats to cover plywood projects. Clean up was very easy.

Good coverage and went on smoothly

To watery, the paint kept running

I like the gray primer the best.

Works very good actually used as a finish coat... gray is very good color

Hmm not sure what went wrong or if this was the wrong primer. One coat over a pre-sanded wood chair left me with a cracked finish. It cracked all over! I'm not sure I can paint the thing at this point..

Built a bookshelf in the basement out of pine 1x8's. Think basic shelves. Nothing too fancy. Had a can of Rust-oleum Ultra Cover paint (Espresso color) that I used to pain the support poles, so I figured I'd use up the rest of the can. The support poles were primered when we bought the house. Took one coat and then a touch-up coat to finish up the support poles. Figured I would stick with Rust-oleum, since I liked the paint. I primed up my shelves (and the previously painted wall where the bookshelf is mounted with this product......wasn't real impressed with it's "fill" factor, but don't really care, since it is a cheap, pine bookshelf. I am now on my THIRD coat of paint trying to get even coverage over this primer, and it will require a 4th coat to get it to look good. At this point, I am just slapping paint on it, and hoping it won't run too much. Now, I'm not a professional painter, but I have painted bare wood before WITHOUT using any primer whatsoever, and THAT usually takes 3 coats. So, really, what was the point in using this product at ALL? Can't recommend it, and I won't ever use it again. Get Kilz or something else. This stuff is junk.

Seems to be a fine primer, I'm no expert. Use multiple coats, sand lightly in between to get the smoothest possible finish.

Doing an old plaster ceiling that was peeling scraped and applied the color was gray but ceiling white covered perfectly.
