Default Kilz Latex Primer - Holdout On Tannin And Knots

The fact that the Kilz water based doesn't spray well is the deal
killer for me. I'd already made up my mind to only use the WB if it
could be sprayed and if it was effective.

Since it looks like I have to go to a solvent based product, I'll
probably apply with a roller and back drag with a brush.


If you're going to brush it anyway, you might as well brush on the
water-based Kilz. It dries in an hour or two, and a quick pass with a
sander makes a really smooth surface for the finish paint.

Suggestion: Add some Floetrol to your finish paint. You can get a
spray-quality finish with a brush. Just watch out for sags.
