With the wealth of knowledge and years of application here, you gotta go w/ SuperSpec. I have never really sold against BM, so since there are about a million SuperSpec products, which primer is being recommended here? And is it a good line for int/ext? I am interested. Thx.

This one. Interior only.

product code is 253, white label not blue, interior only

PPG Speedhide.....It may be fighting words but I don't like super spec. Plus I get speed hide 3-4 dollars less per gallon.

:boxing: :boxing:

Pittsburgh SpeedHide Primer/Sealer for New Drywall is, IMO, one of the most under-rated new drywall primers, dollar for dollar, and/or pound for pound

I often use the Super Spec Vapor Barrier primer on new construction. In some areas, it is code for the primer to be vapor barrier.

by tomorrow 1900 sq ft house will be primed and 1 coat paint throughout on the walls...... not bad for a 1 man show
