Description
Zinsser BIN Shellac-Base Primer is the original shellac primer/sealer trusted by contractors for decades. This high-performance primer effectively covers and seals stubborn stains such as grease, water, smoke damage, graffiti, rust, and wood knots, while permanently blocking most odors. Perfect for prepping indoor surfaces like ceilings, walls, furniture, cabinets, doors, and trim, it creates a smooth base for topcoats with excellent enamel holdout. Versatile enough for spot priming exteriors, it applies easily—even in freezing temperatures—and adheres well to glossy surfaces without sanding. Ideal for porous surfaces, this quick-drying primer results in a non-toxic, hypo-allergenic finish. Great for home restoration, remodeling, painting, and professional contractor projects.
