Is 123 a good primer?
I love bull’s-eye 123, first of all for superior adhesion that is better than most primers. The dry time is great, and the price is better than any other primer of similar quality. I will say 123 is better for adhesion than for hide. But if you are using quality finish paint, that’s all you need.
Is Zinsser 123 any good?
High quality is a given. It’s difficult to gauge the durability of a primer independent from the top coat, but we’ve never had any durability issues with Zinsser 123 Primer. In terms of square footage covered, I’d rate this a 4, but in terms of stain coverage and blockage its on par with other primers.
When can you paint Zinsser 123?
