Questions & Answers
What do yiu use to cleanup?
Hello adhesively (from removing old wood panels) remains after painting several times with water-based interior paint. Can I apply this product on walls as is and prevent future bleed through ?
Happy to help, Arturo. While Rust-Oleum Zinsser B-I-N Shellac Based Primer seals odors and tannin bleed through knows, it has not been tested to seal adhesive. We recommend first applying a test application to ensure the results are as desired. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14
Can this primer be sanded
Thanks for the question, Douglass!. Yes, Zinsser B-I-N Shellac-Based White Primer can be sanded once it is dry. Allow it to dry for about 45 minutes, then lightly sand to smooth the surface and clean off all sanding residue before topcoating. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
How long for it to dry to touch?

Does it work to seal in fragrance in solid-wood cabinets if that fragrance migrated through year-old "air purifying paint? How long does it take to not smell (how long does it offgas?
Good question! Rust-Oleum Zinsser BIN Shellac Based Primer provides our best odor blocking properties for wooden surfaces. Depending on the porosity of the surface multiple coats may be required for the best results. Once the primer has fully cured it will no longer offgas any vapors. BIN will fully cure in 1-3 days. -Rust-Oleum Product Support 14
I have several (5 or so) water stains on a ceiling. I will be priming with your shellac primer (not synthetic). Can I spot paint with the primer and the top coat with ceiling paint or do I need to paint the whole ceiling with the primer and then apply to?
Great question, Bill! Because this is an interior application, we recommend priming the entire surface with Rust-Oleum Zinsser B-I-N Shellac-Based Primer. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15
Can i put this product on a wood subfloor to permanently get rid of dog urine smell and also is it mildew and mold resistant
Happy to clear things up, Edith! While Rust-Oleum Zinsser B-I-N Shellac-Based Primer can be applied to a wood subfloor to seal in odors, it must be used under flooring material such as floor paint, wood, carpet, vinyl, or tile. Wait until the primer has fully cured (1-3 days) before installing the flooring material. — Rust-Oleum Product Support 15

Happy to help! Yes, Rust-Oleum Zinsser B-I-N Shellac-Based Primer can be applied to MDF surfaces. - Rust-Oleum Product Support 10
