PRODUCT INFORMATION
BEHR® Kitchen, Bath & Trim Interior Stain-Blocking Primer & Sealer promotes excellent adhesion to glossy surfaces and
provides maximum stain resistance in a multi-purpose stain-blocking formula. It creates a uniform surface nish for improved
hiding, adhesion and ow and leveling of topcoats. This acrylic latex lm is mildew resistant and also suitable for sizing walls
to promote easier installation of wallcovering.
RECOMMENDED USES:
This product is ideal over oil or water-based coatings, heavy stains, and glossy surfaces. Use over properly prepared uncoated
or previously painted interior surfaces such as:
• Drywall/Gypsum Board • Concrete • Non-Ferrous Metals • Vinyl
• Wood • Plaster • Galvanized Metal • Aluminum
• Brick • Concrete Block/CMU • Architectural Plastics

• This product, like most Zero VOC paints, emits very low
amounts of VOCs.
• Most emissions occur during painting and for 48 hours
after. Some continue for two weeks or longer.
• While VOC emissions are very low, sensitive groups such
as babies and asthma/allergy suerers should minimize
exposure.

SURFACE PREPARATION:
All surfaces must be clean, free of dust, chalk, oil, grease,
wax, polish, mold and mildew stains, loose and peeling
paint, rust, and all other foreign substances.
New Drywall: All drywall surfaces should be suciently
sanded smooth. Remove any remaining drywall dust prior
to priming. Allow all drywall compounds to be completely
dry prior to coating.
New Wood: Remove mill glaze with sandpaper. Set nails
and ll holes, scratches, and gouges with the appropriate
wood ller and let dry completely. Remove all dust with a
wiping cloth. Fill all gaps with a 100% acrylic, siliconized,
paintable caulking, and allow to dry completely. Patched
and lled surfaces should be sanded smooth and dusted
clean prior to coating.
WARNING! Sanding or scraping pressure treated lumber
may be hazardous; wear appropriate protection.
New Plaster: New plaster should be thoroughly dried out
and cured for a minimum of 30 days before painting. When
cured, clean using a mixed solution of one part vinegar and
one part water to remove eorescence and neutralize.
New Masonry: All masonry surfaces must be cured at least
30 days before painting. The pH must be 10.0 or lower prior
to coating. Smooth masonry may require an adequate prole
for adhesion. For all other smooth trowel concrete, create a
prole using a product such as a muriatic acid etcher or with
mechanical means. Remove all loose aggregate and debris.
New Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metal: The oil lm
on new non-ferrous metal must be removed before it is
painted. Remove oil lm with an appropriate solvent or a
water-soluble degreasing cleaner prior to etching. Surface
should then be etched with a metal etching solution,
followed by a thorough rinsing with clean water. Prime the
area the same day as cleaned.
Stainblocking: After priming, test for stain bleed-through
by applying the topcoat to a small section. If the stain bleeds
through the topcoat, apply a second coat of primer and
test again before top-coating the entire area. If bleeding
continues, a longer dry time of the primer may be needed
before top-coating. On stained surfaces, topcoat in 4 hours;
for heavy stains, topcoat in 16 hours.
Previously Painted Surfaces: Remove all loose and
peeling paint and all other foreign substances. Clean any
dirt and grease by scrubbing the surface with a detergent
and water solution, followed by a thorough rinsing with
clean water. Set nails and ll holes, scratches, and gouges
with the appropriate spackling material. Let dry completely
and sand smooth. Remove all dust with a tack or wiping
cloth. Fill all gaps with a 100% acrylic, siliconized, paintable
caulking, and allow to completely dry prior to coating.
Glossy Surfaces: For maximum adhesion, sand the surface
thoroughly before coating.
Before Wallcovering Installation: It is critical to
always test the primed surface with the recommended
wallcovering adhesive to ensure compatibility. Select a
small, inconspicuous area for testing and apply the adhesive
over the primed surface as specied. Inspect test area after
24 hours for any defects before proceeding with installation
of wallcovering.
