- Thick but does the job.Fantastic primer for exterior wood. After you adjust to the thickness, it is easier to work with and covers very well. Most importantly, it provides a great, consistent base for the finish coat.I recommend this!
- WOW is this stuff too thick to use out of the can.This primer is so thick you barely get two brush strokes before it turns to glue on you, and at the same time, it will form runs minutes after you've applied it. It seems useful for spot priming scraped bare spots on cedar or redwood because it has so much build and hiding power, but I can't imagine priming a large area with this. Thinning it improved it but I still hated working with it.I recommend this!
- Too thick.I used this oil-based primer today at the request of my paint dealer; they want some feedback about it. The odor is different from most primers but not objectionable. It covered very well. The primer MUST be thinned; it is too thick and drags. Thinning does not hurt the paint but probably voids its VOC rating. Thin it.I recommend this!
- Good, but...This primer works well, but only if you thin it by about 10% with 'paint thinner'. The label says not to but what do they know... Straight out of the can it's too thick, is ropey, and readily leaves curtains. But, it DOES sand well.I recommend this!
- Like painting with pasteStay away from this primerI recommend this!
