Stain Block Primer Sealer is a quick drying flat, alkyd primer-sealer for use on interior or spot exterior surfaces. Stain Block Sealer primes and seals bare and previously painted wood, plaster, metal and masonry. It is excellent for sealing out smoke and water damage, lipstick, crayon, grease and ink. Stain Block can be topcoated with either alkyd, oil or latex based products. Stain Block Sealer sands easily and has excellent enamel holdout. This may be used as a wall covering primer. Stain Block Sealer may be applied by brush, roller or spray.

Reprinted from National Paint and Coatings Association, Inc., FLAMMABILITY OF PAINT STUDY conducted by Southwest Research Institute, Project 3-3774-141. "We believe this study provides substantial evidence that conventional paints and coatings do not increase the flame spread of either non-flammable or flammable substrated upon which they are applied. It also indicates that any fuel contribution or smoke density increase is insignificant when compared with the contribution of the substrate itself."

Stain Block Sealer should not be applied directly to drywall or sheetrock because it will raise the nap of the paper fiber requiring sanding to a smooth surface before finish coat can be applied. Seal drywall with a coat of latex primer before Sealer is applied to avoid this condition.

Do not apply when surface, air or material temperature is below 50° F. (10° C.).

BARE WOOD - Sand smooth and putty nail holes and cracks. Apply Stain Block Sealer and allow to dry a minimum of 1 hour. Sand lightly if necessary and apply topcoat.

PLASTER - Apply one coat of Sealer to the cured, thoroughly aged plaster and allow to dry a minimum of 1 hour before topcoating. Sand lightly for maximum smoothness.

DRYWALL - For drywall construction where semi-gloss finishes are desired, such as bathrooms or kitchens. Stain Block Sealer should be applied to walls sealed with latex primer. The use of Sealer in this system adds thickness or build to the dry film and prevents a starved appearance that shows unsightly tape joints.

Sand glossy surfaces to a dull finish. Remove all loose and peeling paint by scraping and sand smooth by feathering edges. Liquid deglossers may be used as a surface conditioner to dull glossy surfaces and assure adhesion in place of sanding.

Apply primer undercoat to bare areas or preferably to the entire surface and allow to dry a minimum of 1 hour. Sand lightly and apply topcoat.

Stir each container thoroughly prior to use. Apply at package viscosity.

Brush application is preferred. A short- to medium-nap roller may also be used to apply this product.

To spray, use the following recommendation or equal as a guide:

May be topcoated with alkyd and emulsion finishes, as well as epoxy enamels.

Mineral spirits may be used to clean brushes, rollers and equipment. Dispose of used paint and waste in accordance with local, state and federal regulations.

Stain Block Sealer will cover approximately 400 square feet per gallon (37 square meters per 3.785 liters) on smooth surfaces. Rough surfaces require more paint.

Optimum drying conditions are 60° F. to 90° F. (16° C. to 32° C.) at 50% R.H.
