BULLS EYE ZERO™ is a high performance, eco-friendly water-base primer for interior and exterior applications. The

clean air formula utilizing unique high performance polymers provides a fast drying, low odor primer/sealer with excellent

adhesion, enamel holdout and stain blocking properties. Bulls Eye Zero delivers all of the performance with none of the

odors or solvents that contribute to poor air quality.

Great for residential, institutional or commercial use in schools, hospitals, hotels, nursing homes, restaurants, etc.

Recommended Uses:

PRIMING: Use on interior and exterior new or previously painted drywall, wood (pine, fir, cedar, redwood, plywood, T1-

11), cured plaster, masonry (stucco, cement, poured concrete, concrete block), hardboard, vinyl, PVC, fiberglass, tile,

metal (aluminum, steel, clean galvanized metal). Adheres to tough surfaces such as chalky exterior siding and trim, high

gloss enamels, old varnish, tile, clean galvanized metal and hardboard.

SEALING: Seals unpainted porous surfaces, extending the coverage of the topcoat. The ideal under-coater for oil or

latex enamels, provides the high holdout and smooth sanding necessary to prevent variations in topcoat gloss.

STAIN BLOCKING: Locks in stains such as residual nail head rust, asphalt, creosote, tannin bleed from cedar or

redwood, lipstick, crayon, oil, grease, handprints, most ball point and felt tipped pen marks. Note: when priming over

bare cedar or redwood, allow 24 hours dry time before painting. Persistent stains may require a second coat.

Surface Preparation - Surfaces must be clean, dry, sound and free of any contamination, mildew, rust or unsound

coatings that may interfere with adhesion. Remove unsound coatings. Always wash surface with appropriate cleaner or

solvent (do not use TSP). Rinse, and allow to thoroughly dry prior to application of primer. Spot prime knots and sap

streaks with Zinsser B-I-N

Primer–Sealer.

ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN. PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID EXPOSURE. Wear a NIOSH-approved respirator

to control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with HEPA vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect

yourself and your family by contacting the National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to

Application - Shake or stir well and apply with a brush, roller, airless or conventional sprayer (following spray equipment manufacturer’s instructions; for airless spraying use a .017” tip at 2000 – 2500 P.S.I.). Bulls Eye Zero Primer is formulated to be used without thinning. If thinning is necessary, use no more than one cup of clean tap water per gallon. Excessive thinning will hinder stain blocking properties. Apply between 50 F and 85 F (10 C and 29 C), RH <85%.
