Zinsser Peel Stop Plus Primer Quart

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m so glad I found this product! There was a spot in my living room that has been painted a couple of times (thanks to my 5 year old granddaughter.). This stuff went on easily and covered beautifully!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this Zinsser PEEL STOP TRIPLE THICK to do some DIY and home improvement. I love the quality and the thickness! It goes on evenly and you don't need to do multiple coats. I can't wait to tackle the shed! I'd recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This peel stop triple thick primer is unique in that it is 50% transparent. So it will not give you a thick white primer like some may expect. It is more like a mix between wood glue and primer. It is meant to seal in old paint that you don't want to have to completely remove. You do still need to knock off the loose paint but this helps seal the rest so it doesn't continue chipping under your fresh paint. We have an old shed that needed some love. A good pressure wash a good coat of this magic stuff and it was ready to paint! The paint has held up well!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To put this coating to the test, I used it on old, rough, damaged, previously water soaked, stained, and otherwise just ugly & smelly unfinished plywood inside an old sink base. I put three coats (If I had more time I would have applied a third coat) and then I top-coated with a much thinner primer/top-coat product. (If time, I would have applied a second coat of that). Peelstop Triple Thick mixes surprisingly easy considering how thick it is, and it is thick! It's like a slightly watered-down wood glue (when used at approx. 65-degrees). Also, a surprisingly easy clean-up given its thickness and that it's quick drying. Especially if you use a Chinex bristle brush, it washes right out. The final product: decent. I believe if I had given it the three coats and then two of the topcoat it would have been excellent. Nobody's fault there, time limitations could not be avoided. No points off because no such claims were made, but if you are looking for stain-blocking properties this is probably not the product for you, or perhaps you need a combination of products. I rated it based on the claims made. This proved to be a rock-solid base coat for locking down flacky, splintery, ugly wood. But most of the stain-blocking came from my preferred primer/top-coat combo product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had wallpaper taken down in March 2022 and then had the walls texturized and painted. Within a few months, we noticed that the texture and paint was chipping on the corner of a small wall. I believe this is because there is a metal corner protector piece so the texture didn't stick as well as it does to drywall. Anyways, I covered the areas that were chipping with a good coat of this triple thick primer and it covered pretty darn well. I'm happy with the initial result. The question will be if and for how long it holds up or if it will start chipping away despite this primer. I'm hopeful this will have done the trick and prevent it from chipping any further.
