Hello,
What are you guys using for priming raw wallboard and taped joints in a
basement? At the borg, there are primers available, but the primer say
"low-moisture" areas. Humidity in the basement is around 55% or so.
.
Just curious to read what you are using. I figured Kilz would be fine.
Thank you.

Kilz is what I use. 55% is on the low end for the basement I had in North
Carolina.

I generally use Gripper from HD. It has worked well for me, I've used it
in many bathrooms and never had a problem with it.
