Premium-quality, fast-curing, low VOC primer for new wallboard
New Wallboard Primecoat (formerly known as New Wallboard Primecoat HPV) is specially formulated to provide a superior prime coat on interior surfaces such as new gypsum wallboard (sheetrock) and textured wallboard.
(NOTE: Not suitable for Greenboard).
This is super opaque, which means it is one thick primer. Primecoat solves finishing problems such as "telegraphing" or "joint-banding" by equalizing porosity and texture; it fills voids in the surface of building materials so that top coats cover more evenly.
NOTE: Don't panic. When you first open the can this may appear chunky like soft tofu, but it rolls out beautifully and nothing is wrong. It's just very thick and covers nicely.

Why We Like It
This is a thick, low-odor, super opaque primer that painters love because it dries quickly, covers well and has no odor at all once dry.
