KILZ 2® ALL-PURPOSE
Interior | Exterior Primer

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.

• Unpainted, exterior wood exposed to sun and/or moisture longer than 2-4 weeks must be cleaned and sanded before priming.

• ^†Glossy Surfaces: For maximum adhesion, scuff sand the surface thoroughly before priming.*

• Peeling or Checked Paint: Scrape off loose paint and sand to a smooth surface.*

• Mold or Mildew Covered Surfaces: Wash the area with a mildew remover, rinse with water and allow to dry before priming.

• Masonry, Brick, Stucco and Plaster: KILZ 2® ALL-PURPOSE 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 2 ALL-PURPOSE Primer.

• Fire Restoration: It is critical to clean damaged surfaces thoroughly before priming. Primer recommendations: Water based primers such as KILZ® RESTORATION™ or oil based primers such as KILZ® ORIGINAL (interior use) or KILZ® ORIGINAL INTERIOR/EXTERIOR™.

*WARNING! If you scrape, sand, or remove old paint, you may release lead dust. LEAD IS TOXIC. Contact the National Lead Information Centre at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to www.epa.gov/lead.
