Zinsser Peel Stop Triple Thick Binding Primer, White

This primer did a great job sealing and stabilizing peeling paint before repainting. It goes on smoothly, builds well, and created a solid surface for the topcoat. Great product for restoring older walls and trim.

Thick primer. Good solution when a thick coat needed. Cut down time on primer coats.

I used this on my deck outside. Dries really fast so can put on the next coat. Covers and helps fill in but don’t like the color when it dries.

This stuff is great! I love doing projects, but I despise sanding and stripping paint. I wasn’t sure this would work due to mixed reviews. I coated this swing with this paint about four times. The paint is sheer, I would only use this as a primer. The thickness seemed like typical paint to me. For my project it did fill some of the smaller holes and dents on this swing, but for deeper gauges it didn’t fill them at all. Nothing a little wood filler couldn’t help. This worked perfectly for the peeling paint though! I was skeptical, but it made this very smooth! If you’re looking for something that will make it “perfect” this isn’t it, but for something that will stop peeling it is fabulous! Once a top coat of paint is added you can’t even tell that it ever had peeling paint underneath it. This is going to be a go to for future projects.

Took me a few months to get around to doing my project after ordering. Upon opening yesterday, product was the consistency of cottage cheese. No amount of mixing would fix. Went to home depot and got the gallon version, and saw what the consistency is supposed to be like. This was clearly a defective product, seller is claiming "outside the 30 day window" for refunds. Buyer beware. Just go to your local hardware store. This seller is pulling product out of a warehouse that is either super old or exposed to freeze/thaw conditions.

Had some paint flaking and the beginnings of mold on a bathroom ceiling and this product was recommended. It’s been up for over and year and I’ve had no issues at all. I’m definitely a DIY person and this job was easy to do. After sanding and scraping all the old paint off the ceiling I wiped all the dust down and gave a good solid coat of this. It dries clear and has a hard plastic feel like paint so I could tell it was durable. Primer and then paint and the ceiling will hopefully last another 30 years. Would recommend to anyone dealing with the classic bathroom ceiling issues. Also, reminding my kids to use fan while showering will likely help a lot too.

LOVE this product, I've used it before. Bought a small can here to touch up a different room, but it arrived as one solid chunk, all hardened in the can, just old I assume. Slowed down my project, big pain to return and reorder etc.

I've used this before when I was trying to paper a wall. I lifted the paper to position and parts of the original builders paint started peeling off where they had not printed drywall compound underneath. I stripped what I could and used this to seal down the edges. Worked a treat On this more recent project I was painting a whole house which had had many paint jobs over the years. Most was ok, but we'd suddenly get parts when the paint peeled off during prep. This worked to get those stuck down. I actually brought it where sections of popcorn needed repair (complete removal not wanted). Used a craft knife to cut back until the popcorn was better fixed. Then applied peel stop. I'd intended to then use a popcorn repair product and did do this at first on one section. I'm pretty confident the Peel Stop was helping there. We ended up having new popcorn sprayed on the repair areas. In one area this was fine e before we'd applied the Peel Stop and the new popcorn was cracking afterwards. Well worth having around to solve problems where a coating comes off partially and then the rest is difficult to remove (which always seems to be the case).

I found this product to be amazing. After trying twice to sand and seal a peeling bathroom ceiling (with other sealers) only to have it fail both times, I ordered this product and it has worked. I once again scraped/sanded the whole ceiling and gave it two coats of this Zinsser product and painted with ceiling paint. If this hadn't worked, I was going to replace the actual ceiling plaster board. I understand other reviewers concerns regarding the colour but this is only a sealer - not a paint. It is a very watery white colour and you will need to paint with your final paint colour. I cannot praise this product enough.

I had alot of peeling paint, after removing the easily removable stuff. I did two coats and it was also just thick enough that it wasn't noticeable where paint levels were lower. It is a little expensive but it will save you alot of prep having to sand everything back. Would recommend this product.
