Zinsser Peel Stop

Zinsser Peel Stop is a quick drying, vinyl resin coating for surfaces prone to flaking, chalking and peeling. It tightly bonds to old paint and problem areas, forming a sound surface for new paint. Working as a bridging primer, it seals surface areas which have been grazed or cracked, preventing the topcoat from cracking. Ideal for wood: window frames, doors and fences, sawn timber, plywood, concrete, metal and so much more.

For the best results, ensure surfaces to be coated are sound, clean, dry and free from all defective or poorly adhering material such as dirt, grease, wallpaper, mould or adhesives. If needed, clean surface using an appropriate cleaning solution.

1. Take special precautions during surface preparation of pre-1960s paint surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead
2. Lightly sand glossy paint and exposed wood, removing any loose material
3. Fill any nail holes and imperfections with a suitable multi-purpose filler and spot prime the area
4. Spot prime sanded areas or where paint has been scraped using Zinsser B-I-N

Always do a test area before starting any project to check product suitability and effectiveness. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the tin at all times.

Only apply at temperatures ranging between 10°C and 32°C and a relative humidity of no more than 80%.

1. Stir or shake thoroughly before use
2. Apply Zinsser Peel Stop with a good quality synthetic brush, microfibre roller or airless sprayer
3. Ensure the coating is worked well into all edges and cracks on old paint surfaces
4. Apply 1 full coat to prepared surfaces, this will dry to a soft sheen. A second coat may be necessary if dull spots appear
5. Allow 2 hours between coats

Cleaning Equipment

Clean brushes and rollers immediately after use, using warm, soapy water.

Once fully dry, Zinsser Peel Stop can be primed using Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3 or Zinsser Cover Stain and then finished with a suitable water-based or alkyd paint for maximum results.
