Zinsser BIN Primer-Sealer & Stain Killer 2.5 Litre

Used this to prime some melamine kitchen cupboards before painting. Gave them a good clean with sugar soap, let them dry and got busy with a brush and mini-roller to apply the primer. Found it to be quite a thin primer, but it didn't run when applied. It had the consistency of a thin pva glue, but the coverage was excellent and stayed where I put it, no drips or pools or splatter. It dries very quickly, which is important when you've got a house full of geriatric dogs who keep bumbling into everything! Touch dry in 15 minutes is actually accurate, and was applying the first coat of paint over the primer in less than an hour. The smell isn't great, but with the windows open it wasn't too unpleasant. I'm very happy with the quality of the product and have plenty left over from priming 20 kitchen cupboards for other projects. Excellent coverage, and good value. Highly recommend.

I bought this after reading it was good at covering odours from floorboards. My dog was weeing on one part of the carpet, without me realising until I smelled it. I ripped up the carpet to replace and the pee was on the floorboards. Thought I was going to have to replace them too. I used an enziyme spray, sanded the area, and painted this on top. Very quickly dried and no more dog pee smell. Amazing stuff. New carpet incoming and the dog is now banished from the upstairs!

Not as amazing as I expected. I got it to cover some dark patches on a wall. (Not damp but must be bits where there had been repairs to the wall and the paint dried differently). This primer reduced the patches but did not elimiate them. I have also used it on some ikea style shiny furniture and for this it is GREAT! Very watery needs a slow and careful approach to painting if you slap it on it gets everywhere. But dries super fast! Took way longer to be delivered than it said online. And when it wasnt coming on time it wouldnt let me cancel my order.

Does the job but boy does this smell. I was coating some oak stair spindles with it all day and it’s really noticeable. It’s not a wholly unpleasant smell, I couldn’t put my finger on it, but it kept reminding me of burnt caramel. That aside, it covers well and stops tannins seeping through as expected. Once applied don’t over brush. When you apply, after a minute or two has passed dont go back and touch up- instead let it dry first. It also runs so take care in application. All that said it applies well with a good brush.

Very good, as described

You pay for what you get and yes a little expensive but worth the money first coat not really impressed but second coat made a massive difference. A little runny so only load one side of the brush also I found if doing a large area use 2 brushes as it does start to stiffen the brush. Smells not that bad as other people have mentioned. If your going to the hassle of stripping down wood then Won’t be using anything else as this stuff made the hard work worthwhile

I often use Zinsser primers for decorating jobs and have had excellent results with Zinsser Bullseye products. This time I have used Zinsser BIN to coat some wood (dado, skirting etc) which had been previously been coated with a dark wood stain. Apparently this primer will stop that stain leaking through to the surface, although it is too early for me to comment on whether that is the case! I was surprised at how runny the primer is and found it a little difficult until I got the hang of it. I found I needed to put a small amount on the brush and paint it on carefully to avoid immediate drips. (Too much on the brush and it immediately runs off the wood and onto the floor.) After a minute or two, however, the applied primer seemed to thicken on the wood and could be spread out more easily. A little of this primer seems to go a long way. It dries very quickly and can be overcoated with more primer, if needed, about an hour later. I left it a couple of days before applying my white one-coat gloss paint. The results appear to be very good, but the real test will be whether the wood stain does not seep through (I will update this review at some point in the future). Next, I plan to use this primer on some old melamine wardrobes that I want to overpaint. I asked the manufacturer about this and they told me that Zinsser BIN will be the right primer for this, as I will not need to sand down the melamine first - the primer will stick to it and provide a suitable base for overpainting. Watch this space!

Great done a perfect cover off a badly damaged kitchen due to a burst bathroom pipe, took 2 coats to cover which surprised me as it was so messy I thought it would need a lot more, easy to apply make sure you cover furniture though as it's quite thin and runny. I then applied 2 coats of white emulsion and you would never detect any damage, great appearance 👍

Se avete bisogno di un primer, non cercate altro: siete arrivati a destinazione! Il prodotto è oggettivamente costoso, ma una volta che si comincia ad usarlo si capisce il perchè: è altamente coprente, riempie le piccole imperfezioni e porosità di materiali anche "difficili" (io l'ho usato sull'mdf che è un materiale che assorbe tantissimo), è una bellissima tinta di bianco di titanio, colorabile con pigmenti per ottenere anche colorazioni chiare (colorante max 2%) e sopratutto...asciuga talmente in fretta che se non siete veloci nelle passate rischiate che il pennello o il rullo comincino a lasciarci dei pezzettini!!! Poi è inodore, è resistente all'umidità (ma non usatelo per mobili da garage o ambienti estremi) e può essere lasciato anche così com'è se avete bisogno di un manufatto di colore bianco. Può comunque essere verniciato una volta asciutto, sia con vernice a solvente che con quelle a base acqua, e il risultato è ottimo...Si è capito che sono soddisfattissimo? :) Unica osservazione: per risultati ottimali almeno due mani sono necessarie, per cui fate bene i calcoli sulla quantità di vernice in rapporto alla superficie e al materiale da verniciare: nel mio caso con l'mdf per verniciare una cassettiera 55x55x60 cm (pannelli da 19 mm di spessore) con verniciatura a rullo 1lt mi è appena appena bastato...siete avvisati ;)
