Stain-Blocking Primer is a 100% acrylic water based undercoat, designed to seal and block most bleeding type stains on interior and exterior surfaces including, ink, crayon, lipstick, food stains, water and smoke damage. This primer has excellent adhesion to most surfaces and may be used as an all purpose primer for wood, wallboard, plaster, ceiling tiles, Masonite and non-ferrous metal.
