KILZ® ORIGINAL LOW ODOR
Interior Primer

Surface Preparation^†

• 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.

• 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.
  Note: KILZ PREMIUM and KILZ 2® Primers are recommended for mildew-prone surfaces.

• Masonry, Brick, Stucco and Plaster: KILZ ORIGINAL LOW ODOR 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 ORIGINAL LOW ODOR Primer.

Application

• Eye protection is recommended. Do not thin. Stir thoroughly before and occasionally during use. Apply using a brush, roller or sprayer. Any slight odor that is detected during application will diminish quickly.

• Use product when painting surface and air temperatures are between 35°F (2°C) and 90°F (32°C).

• Airless spray – .015-.019 tip / 60 mesh filter

• Prime the entire surface to ensure a uniform appearance of the topcoat.

• Stainblocking: After priming, test for stain bleed-through by applying the topcoat to a small section. If the stain bleeds through the topcoat, apply a second coat of primer and test again before topcoating the entire area. If bleeding continues, a longer dry time is needed before topcoating.
