Surface Preparation:

• The surface must be clean, free of dust, grease, wax, peeling paint and wallpaper paste. If washing is necessary use a non-soapy detergent or a TSP substitute. Rinse well and allow to dry.
• For maximum adhesion, scrape off loose paint and scuff sand the surface thoroughly before priming. On glossy surfaces: scuff sand the surface thoroughly before priming.
• Unpainted, exterior wood exposed to sun and/or moisture longer than 2-4 weeks must be cleaned and sanded before priming.
• Wash the area with a mildew remover, rinse with water and allow to dry before priming.
• KILZ PREMIUM may be used on clean, dry, aged masonry surfaces. New masonry must be allowed to cure (dry) at least 30 days before applying KILZ PREMIUM.
• It is critical to clean smoke damaged surfaces thoroughly before priming. Primary Recommendation: KILZ ORIGINAL or KILZ ODORLESS.

Application:

• Eye protection is recommended.
• A small amount of water may be added for spray applications, but do not thin for stainblocking applications.
• Stir thoroughly before and occasionally during use.
• Apply using a brush, roller or sprayer.
• Only apply if surface, air and product temperatures are between 50°-90°F.
• Prime the entire surface to ensure a uniform appearance of the topcoat.
• 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.
• Tinting is not recommended for stainblocking applications. KILZ PREMIUM may be tinted with up to 2 ounces of universal colorant per gallon for non-stainblocking projects. Tinting to a lighter shade than the topcoat is recommended.
• Coverage is up to 300 square feet per gallon on porous surfaces; up to 400 square feet per gallon on smooth, nonporous surfaces.
