It dries quickly within 2 hours, forming a durable, moisture-proof barrier that prevents drywall blistering, mold, and mildew for up to 5 years. With excellent adhesion to solvent-based and glossy paints, it covers 15 square meters per litre and cleans up easily with soap and water, making it the go-to choice for professional-grade surface prep and protection. ## Description Zinsser Gardz & reg; Sealer Primer is a clear, water-based, acrylic resin sealer that penetrates deeply into porous surfaces. It dries fast, and forms a hard, moisture-proof film that prevents drywall blistering and bubbling. It binds down chalky surfaces, strengthens soft texture finishes, and seals in residual wallpaper paste. Gardz & reg; Sealer Primer can be applied to high-pH surfaces, and is easily cleaned up with soap and water. Recommended Uses: Damaged Drywall: prevents bubbles that form when damaged drywall is skim coated with spackling or joint compound. It penetrates and seals damaged facing paper, restoring it to a sound surface for repairs, suitable for painting or wallcovering. New Drywall / Joint Compound and Spackling: new gypsum drywall, joint compound and spackling are very porous and can make finish coatings appear splotchy and uneven. It penetrates and uniformly seals, creating a moisture resistant film that protects drywall from blistering, tearing and other damage when redecorating in the future. Plaster: freshly applied plaster is extremely porous but also extremely alkaline with a pH of 12.0 or more in many cases. Allow new plaster to cure at least 24 hours before applying. Before priming old, bare plaster, be sure to determine that the surface is clean, dry and in sound condition, taking care to repair any cracks or holes with spackling paste or joint compound before sealing the surface. Calcimine: is a very old form of plaster that is extremely chalky and water-sensitive. It penetrates calcimine more effectively than oil-base coatings and has a much lower odour. Because it resists moisture, it prevents water-based topcoat paint or texture finishes from softening up calcimine layers underneath. Wallpaper Adhesive Residue: water-based coatings or texture finishes will reactivate old wallpaper adhesive, resulting in cracking and peeling. Formulated to completely seal in residual adhesive and prevent it from ruining water-based topcoats and texture finishes. Texture and Popcorn Finishes: Can be used to seal textured walls and popcorn ceilings before applying water base primer or paint. It penetrates soft or crumbly texture material and hardens it, creating a durable, water resistant barrier that prevents primer or paint from softening texture material underneath. Old Wallpaper: most of the wallpaper installed before the 1960’s was true paper, with no vinyl coating. To determine if the wallcovering is a true paper wipe a wet sponge across the surface, if the water is readily absorbed it means there is no vinyl coating. This type of wallcovering can be effectively sealed. First, peel away any loose or frayed edges, or whatever remains should be firmly adhered to the wall. Apply as you would to any other wall surface. Pre-Wallcovering Primer: penetrates, seals, sizes and protects drywall facing paper and skim coat, providing a properly sealed surface for new wallcovering. At redecorating time, it protects the surface of the drywall when the old wallcovering is stripped off. Builder & rsquo;s Flat Paint: penetrates chalky, builder & rsquo;s flat paint and binds it to the wall, providing water-resistant protection from paint, wallcovering and texture finishes.

Zinsser has earned a reputation as a company that listens to contactors and develops new products – or adds features to existing products – to meet their changing needs. Review: Works well, quality product from established brand. Recommended. - Good primer sealer. I use this on fresh new plaster to seal and prime ready for paint. Goes a long way as it’s a thin viscosity so acts as a mist coat. Works well, quality product from established brand. See pics of bare plaster sealed/primed and finally painted white. Recommended.

I had no issues with the product itself and would definitely recommend it. Unfortunately, this particular order was delayed quite a bit, and by the time it eventually arrived I no longer needed it, so I had to return it. A shame, as the product is fantastic, but the delivery experience on this occasion was disappointing. ## Frequently Bought Together - Zinsser ZINGS1L GS1L Gardz Sealer Primer 1 Litre, 1L, Clear - Zinsser Peel Stop Clear Binding Primer 1 Litre ZINPSP1L - 310ml Toupret Fill-Flex Flexible Filler for Gaps and Cracks Fibacryl --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/48192032-zinsser-zings1l-gs1l-gardz-sealer-primer-1-litre-1l-clear](https://www.desertcart.us/products/48192032-zinsser-zings1l-gs1l-gardz-sealer-primer-1-litre-1l-clear) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-11*
