Review: This Primer Hits a Home Run - I’ve used many different primers over the years and this one is one of, if not, the best! If I needed a primer tomorrow and didn have any on hand, this is the one I’d be looking for. Milkshake thick. Easy application and clean up make this one a winner. Two thumbs up!
Review: Better than bin imo - Excellent coverage with 20% h2o! I didn't have an airless sprayer handy to shoot it full strength, so I used a cheap 22v turbine sprayer. No tannins or anything bled through. Easy to sand. I like using better than Bin. Which is saying alot because I preferred Bin primmer for years. I just tried this Smart Primer on a whim.. Now it is my favorite.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OMG this is a game changer!
*by N***S on July 2, 2024*

I read reviews about this water based primer before buying and was still a bit skeptical since I was changing my black bedroom furniture white. This is the best primer I have ever used, I lightly sanded my wood furniture and since it was black and I didn't want any bleeding I used two coats of primer. This goes on like butter, total coverage with not a lot of waste. This gallon was just the right amount for two coats on 2 nightstands; a king size bed headboard and frame; and two large dressers. I did not take a lot of before pictures which makes me mad but I did have a picture of the nightstand to show how black it was. This is well worth the price.
