1 coat of Zinsser Gardz is generally all you need. It binds loose material and creates a moisture-proof film that can act as a barrier coat between a problem substrate and new decorating materials.

Primer comes in two forms: oil-based and water-based. Our tip for painting over rotting or weathered wood is to use oil-based primers, because oil primers seal the wood grains and prevent bubbling. Prime any filled spots first, and then work your way from the top of the exterior wall to the bottom.
Drying Time- At normal temperatures Peel Stop will dry in one hour and may be primed or painted in two hours. Note: Peel Stop that has seeped under the edges of remaining paint layers or has filled minute cracks may take longer to dry than material on exposed surfaces.

A popular choice is Zinsser's Peel Stop, which is a water-based primer that penetrates chalky surfaces and helps to glue-down the edges of cracking and peeling coatings to the substrate so they can be successfully painted over. It can be used on both interior and exterior applications in lieu of paint stripping.

Use a roller with a 3 / 8” or less synthetic nap. Apply Gardz to walls from the bottom up to prevent product from running down the wall. If this happens, back-roll or brush out the runs to even out the film. When applying to ceilings do not press hard or the product will drip out of the roller.
