I'm going to re-paint a white wooden building which badly needs re-
painting. I've had good luck with Kilz white interior paint coverage. Any
comments on using Kilz-2 for exterior? Long-lasting? Good coverage? Maybe
I can get by with one coat?

TIA

Ken

Its good stuff. Use it all the time. One coat should work,but that remains
to be seen. Only you will know that.

Old fashion oil is still the best for bare wood primer, years ago I
used Kils labeled exterior also, it failed in 6 months, the rep would
do nothing on backing it up. Sherwin Williams has many times backed
their warranty for me.

I've been using Kilz (we're talking about primer here, right?) for
years, but a local painting contractor tells me that, basically, it's
shit. At least the latex stuff. He uses a good-quality oil-based primer,
which is what I'm going to start using from now on.

wow. I have been using it for 3 years at least and not had a problem with
it. Guess I'll have to look for another product. Then again I'm not a pro
painter.
