KILZ 1 Gallon 1 Standard Interior Water-Based Acrylic Primer & Sealer

KILZ® 1 STANDARD Water-Based Primer is designed for use on multiple interior surfaces helping save cost by reducing the number of coats of paint needed to achieve optimal results. It seals porous surfaces, hides minor scuffs and marks and promotes a more uniform appearance of the topcoat. It's ready to brush, roll or spray and can be topcoated after one hour with latex or oil-based paint.

Use KILZ STANDARD Primer on almost all interior surfaces including wood, drywall, plaster, brick, masonry and more. Not recommended for flooring, glossy surfaces, mold and mildew prone surfaces or for stainblocking.

SURFACE PREPARATION*

The following steps are recommended for product performance.

• All surfaces must be clean, free of dust, chalk, oil, grease, wax, polish, mold and mildew, loose peeling paint, rust and all other foreign substances.
• If washing is necessary, use a non-soapy detergent or a TSP substitute, rinse well and allow to dry.
• Peeling or Checked Paint: Scrape off loose paint and sand to a smooth surface. Sanding or removal of paint containing lead is hazardous.*
• Glossy Surfaces: KILZ PREMIUM and KILZ 2® Primers are recommended for use over properly prepared glossy surfaces.
• Mold or Mildew Covered Surfaces: Wash the area with a mildew remover, rinse with water and allow to dry before priming. Note: KILZ PREMIUM, KILZ 2 and KILZ Kitchen & Bath Primers are recommended for mildew-prone surfaces.
• Masonry, Brick, Stucco and Plaster: KILZ STANDARD Primer may be used on clean, dry, aged masonry surfaces. New masonry must be allowed to cure (dry) at least 30 days before applying KILZ STANDARD Primer.

APPLICATION

• Eye protection is recommended. For spray applications, a small amount of water (no more than ½ pint per gallon) may be added.
• Only apply if surface, air and product temperatures are between 50°-90°F (10°-32°C). Stir thoroughly before and occasionally during use.
