Zinsser B-I-N Shellac-Based Primer Sealer 1Ltr (29661)

Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. Neither of these products would be recommended for the project you are looking to undertake, the BIN primer is only suitable as an interior primer unless this is sealing knots and is followed by a full coat of another of our primers. Bulls Eye 123, while containing a rust inhibitor, wouldn't seal in any rust staining. In this instance the primer we would recommend for you would be Cover Stain (17114 & 17117) as this may be used on exterior projects and will hold back any staining providing the nail heads have been cleaned back prior to application. One or two coats of the primer should be applied at a coverage rate of 10m2/L/coat, with a re-coat time of 2 hours. Once this has dried, you may over-coat with your choice of top coat oil or water based. I hope this helps.

Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. BIN primer/sealer is our go to product for stain blocking and would be perfect for the project you are looking to undertake. One or two coats of the primer should be applied by brush or roller at a coverage rate of approximately 10m2/L/coat, with a re-coat time of 45 minutes, either by itself or your choice of decorative top coat, oil or water based. We do recommend the area is cleaned prior to applying any primer to provide the best adhesion. For this hot soapy water, rinsing with warm water then wiping over with methylated spirits would be the best action. I hope this helps.

Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. BIN would be our recommended primer for application over a varnished surface as this will provide great key while promoting excellent key for your decorative top coat, which can be oil or water based. One or two coats of BIN should be applied by brush or roller at a coverage rate of approximately 10m2/L/coat, with a re-coat time of 45 minutes either by itself or your top coat. Before applying the primer the area should have any loose or flaking paint removed by sanding, followed by a good clean with hot soapy water, rising with warm water the degreasing by wiping over with methylated spirits when dry. I hope this helps.

Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. BIN wouldn't prevent the wallpaper paste from reacting. We would recommend cleaning the wall using DIF Wallpaper Stripper (8421J) as this will remove any residual paste from the wall, allowing the area to be primed and painted. Once the paste has been removed you may apply either BIN or Bulls Eye 123 primer ( 10135 & 10136) to the wall to seal the area and make ready for your emulsion top coat. I hope this helps.

Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. Our primers are manufactured to have a decorative finish applied and haven't been tested with plaster, the system you are proposing wouldn't be recommended by us. While the BIN primer sealer may be used, we would advise this is applied over the cured plaster in two coats. This will seal the plaster, hold back any odours and block any staining from coming through. Two coats applied by brush or roller at a coverage rate of approximately 10m2/L/coat should be applied with a re-coat time of 45 minutes. Once this has dried your choice of decorative top coat may be applied. I hope this helps.
