A Zinzer BIN... interesting (sounds like a character from a sci-fi movie

The primer I was using was water based, so I'll have a look into these
(Zinzer and oil) products. What are the brand names of these products in the
US?

Zinzer is the brand, BIN is one of their trade names, along with, I
think, BullsEye which is a shellac. Good products. Last time I bought
any it was at a Menard's but any of the big box stores (or local paint
stores for that matter) will have it. It's a national brand rather than
regional AFAIK.
