Zinsser B-I-N

Zinsser B-I-N is an ultimate, multi-surface coating which blocks powerful odours such as smoke, pet odours and nicotine. It offers excellent adhesion to most surfaces without the need of sanding and boasts superior stain blocking qualities on interior surfaces such as, ceilings, walls, doors, furniture, and other painted surfaces. It can also be used for spot priming exterior stains such as, graffiti, rust, smoke, grease, asphalt, and water stains. Perfect for use as a primer on interior surfaces such as, wood, metal, drywall, plaster, glass, tiles and more. Seals unpainted and porous surfaces and can be used to prime pre-existing wall coverings to hide strong colours or patterns.

Cleaning Equipment

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use, using 1 part ammonia to 3 parts water. Any spillages should be cleaned up using denatured alcohol. For removing dried paint on brushes and rollers, use Zinsser B-I-N Brush Cleaner and Restorer

The Zinsser B-I-N is fine for use on interior ceramic tiles.

Werecommend cleaning the surface with a strong multicide such as Zinsser Mould Killer and Remover to eradicate the problem and kill the mould at the source, applying Zinsser Cover Stain and finish with Zinsser Perma-White Interior

This product can be used outside but only for spot priming. It doesn't offer enough flexibility to applied to a larger surface.

The B-I-N is not comparable to the Peel Stop as they do separate jobs. The Peel Stop acts as a glue that seals and holds together brittle and flaky substrates to help prolong the life of the surface. If you are using Peel Stop we recommend using Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3 or Zinsser Cover Stain, rather than B-I-N for priming after use.

The recoat time on the B-I-N is 45 Minutes.

We wouldn't recommend this as this product is not flexible enough to cope with the movement of rope or wicker.
