Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3 Plus Primer 2.5Ltr (756JG)

Delivers performance benefits normally only associated with solvent-based primers, including exceptional adhesion and stain blocking. Specially formulated to resist re-wetting, meaning it can block water-soluble stains like a solvent-based primer and seal oil-soluble stains, meaning painting projects can be completed with just one primer. Can be applied directly over water and smoke stains. Ideal for hard to paint interior and exterior substrates such as glossy surfaces, ceramic tiles, non-ferrous metal (such as aluminium, stainless steel and galvanised metal), vinyl, hardboard, melamine, varnish, plastic, GRP, UPVC, wood, masonry and more. Contains a biocide that protects the dried coating against fungal degradation, making it suitable for high humidity areas such as bathrooms and laundry rooms. Offers effective resistance to fungal degradation on the underside and surface of the primer film, prolonging the life of the paint job.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product This totally solved a problem of stain not taking on some bits of the stairs I had stripped, creating a blotchy effect. Painting this on meant I was able simply to go over them again.

Can you use Bullseye 123 Primer to paint lead flashing

Asked by: Andynl
Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. Bulls Eye 123 primer is perfect for the project you are looking to undertake, this will provide excellent adhesion and promote great key. 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 1 hour in normal drying conditions. Once this has dried your choice of decorative top coat may be applied. This water based primer should be applied when the air and substrate temperature are 10oC and rising. Before applying the primer, the surface should be cleaned using hot soapy water, rinsing with warm water and wiping over with methylated spirit if possible. Once this is dry you may apply the primer. I hope this helps.

Will this cover patches of old paint left on plaster

Have been advised that chemical paint strippers are not recommended for plaster? Looking for easier removal rather than skim coat! Any ideas please?
Asked by: Spud22
Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. If you are looking to remove the paint without using paint strippers, we would only be able to suggest sanding this from the surface. You can use the Bulls Eye 123+ primer, or Bulls Eye 123 primer (10135 & 10136), to paint the whole area, providing a uniform finish for your choice of decorative top coat. One or two coats of either primer should be applied by brush or roller at a coverage rate of approximately 10m2/L/coat with a re-coat time of 1 hour. Once these are dry you may apply your choice of decorative top coat. The primer will provide a great finish for your top coat, however this is a thin build coating. I hope this helps.

Primer for moisture resistant MDF bath panel

I'm planning on making a bath panel using moisture resistant MDF, would this be an appropriate primer to use for this purpose please? And would an eggshell paint be OK to finish off? Thanks!
Asked by: Ankali
Hi Ankali. Thanks for your enquiry. The Bulls Eye 1-2-3 would be the perfect choice for this particular project. It has excellent sealing properties which will resist flaking. 1-2 coats are recommended allowing 1 hour between each or before you apply your decorative top coat, this can be either oil or water-based. I hope this helps.

Would this be suitable for use as a primer on melamine worktops

Can this be used as a primer on kitchen worktops & then overcoated with an epoxy resin flow coat?
Asked by: SR08
Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. The Bulls Eye 123 primer isn't recommended to be applied to kitchen worktops as this hasn't been tested to food safety standards. Also, as our products are manufactured for decorative purposes, the primer isn't designed for the usage and cleaning this would be subjected to, even with a top coat to protect the coating. In this instance, we would recommend using a primer designed for the worktop and usage you would expect this to have. I hope this helps.

Kitchen cupboards?

Can I use this to prime melamine kitchen units before painting with a washable white paint?
Asked by: Tuzzer
Hello Thank you for your recent enquiry. Bulls Eye 123 primer will be perfect for the project you are looking to undertake as this will adhere well to the surface and offer great key. 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 1 hour. Once this has dried your choice of decorative top coat may be applied, either oil or water based. Prior to applying the primer we recommend cleaning the units with hot soapy water, rinsing with warm water and wiping with methylated spirit to promote the best adhesion. I hope this helps.
