Fine!

Easy to apply and covers well. We were painting over a glazed surface, and primer was necessary.

Great Coverage Over Dark Colors

This primer had impressive coverage over a bright purple that was previously in the bedroom I’m painting. If I did a second coat the purple would be gone completely but I think 2 coats of my new color will cover it. So impressed that there was no paint smell!
