Clean the b.b. first with soap and water.

If the b.b. have been painted already , you can directly paint over them.

If the surface is very glossy you can use Gripper a superb primer from Glidden.

If they are coated with p.u. or stain use Gripper.

Is glidden gripper or cover stain the best primer?

Choosing between Glidden Gripper and Cover Stain as the best primer depends on your specific needs. Glidden Gripper is known for its excellent adhesion and is ideal for challenging surfaces, while Cover Stain is an oil-based primer that excels in stain blocking and provides a smooth finish. If you're dealing with stains or need to seal wood, Cover Stain may be the better option; for general purposes and multi-surface applications, Glidden Gripper is a strong contender. Ultimately, the best choice will depend on the surface and project requirements.

How should I prepare the surface of my kitchen cabinets for painting?

Use gripper as a primer before painting your cabinets. I made the mistake of putting paint over cabinets with out gripper and the paint easily chipped and would even scratch with as little as a fingernail when opening a door or drawer. The next time I painted cabinets I used gripper and after 5 years the cabinets still look like new.


Can you use an oil kilz then use latex paint on wall board?

yes Yes, an oil paint will adhere to latex. It doesn't work in reverse, latex will not adhere to oil that is dry, but oil adheres to dry latex. If you were a purist, though, you would sand down the woodwork before repainting it. That would give the best result.

2-in-1 paint and primer on fresh drywall?

There are several products now available that work as both primer and top coat. I have been told by people I trust in the business, that these products are good and time saving.

How can I properly prepare and apply paint to baseboards for a professional and long-lasting finish?

To properly prepare and apply paint to baseboards for a professional and long-lasting finish, follow these steps: Clean the baseboards thoroughly to remove any dust, dirt, or grease. Sand the baseboards to create a smooth surface for the paint to adhere to. Apply a primer to the baseboards to help the paint bond and prevent stains from bleeding through. Use a high-quality paintbrush or roller to apply the paint in thin, even coats. Allow each coat to dry completely before applying the next one. Consider using a semi-gloss or high-gloss paint for baseboards, as they are more durable and easier to clean. Touch up any imperfections or missed spots before the paint fully dries. Allow the paint to cure for the recommended time before placing furniture or objects against the baseboards. By following these steps, you can achieve a professional-looking finish that will last for years to come.
