Technical Data Bulletin

Recommended Uses – Recommended for application to interior ceilings, walls, doors, trim, cabinets, furniture, and

related paintable surfaces. Exterior uses are limited to spot priming only. May be used to block water, nicotine, smoke,

rust, crayon, graffiti, and many other types of stains.

• Interior - New and previously painted drywall, cured plaster/cement based coatings, wood (pine, fir, cedar, redwood,

plywood), metal (aluminum, wrought iron, steel and other metals), vinyl, PVC, fiberglass, cured masonry (stucco,

concrete block, poured concrete, brick). Blocks stains and odors resulting from water & fire damage, seals stains from

dark colors, grease, rust, creosote, asphalt, crayon, lipstick, graffiti, markers, knots, sap streaks, tannin bleed, etc. If

necessary, lightly sand new drywall after priming to remove any raised nap fibers

• Exterior - Spot prime persistent bleed from knots and sap streaks before full-surface priming with water or oil base

primer.

• Sealing – B-I-N2 seals unpainted or porous surfaces so topcoat paints have better coverage. It fills and binds wood

fibers to create a smooth, sealed surface with “enamel holdout” so fewer coats of paint are needed. Note that very

porous surfaces may require two coats and may reduce square foot coverage of the product.

• Stain Blocking & Odor Sealing – One coat will effectively block stains - including water, smoke, nicotine, crayon,

most types of marker and ink, tannin, graffiti, pencil - and prevent them from bleeding into the topcoat paint. Some

stains require a second coat. Recommended for sealing heavy fire and water stains B-I-N2 seals in smoke stains and

odors caused by fires. It also seals in urine and other animal odors from smelling. B-I-N2 is also recommended for sealing

nicotine stains or odors from tobacco. For severe stains and to permanently block odors use Zinsser B-I-N

Ultimate Stain Blocker.

• Over Wallcovering – B-I-N2 may be used to prime existing, soundly adhered, non-porous wallcoverings to hide

patterns/dark colors prior to painting.

Glossy Surfaces – Glossy enamel paint and clear finishes, ceramic tile, paneling, cabinets and metal surfaces can be

primed without sanding or deglossing.
