COVERAGE

Approximately 400sq.ft./gal. (9.8 m2/l)
depending on application method and surface porosity.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Surfaces should be clean, dry, sound and free of dust, dirt,

excessive chalky material, grime, grease, oil, wax, mildew,

wallpaper adhesive, or any contamination that may

interfere with adhesion. If unsure of cleanliness, always

wash surface with household ammonia and water solution,

appropriate cleaning solution or solvent (do not use TSP

as a cleaner). Remove any peeling and/or unsound

coatings. Sand any remaining paint film edges smooth.

Remove existing stains by washing, sanding, scraping,

etc. Countersink exposed nail heads, spot prime and fill all

nail holes and gouges with Ready-Patch® spackling

compound or equally suitable material.

WARNING!

If you scrape, sand or remove old paint, you

may release lead dust. LEAD IS TOXIC. EXPOSURE TO

LEAD DUST CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ILLNESS, SUCH AS

BRAIN DAMAGE, ESPECIALLY IN CHILDREN.

PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD ALSO AVOID

EXPOSURE. Weara NIOSH-Approved respirator to

control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA

vacuum and a wet mop. Before you start, find out how to

protect yourself and your family by contacting the National

Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log on to

www.epa.gov/lead.

NEW DRYWALL

New drywall must be wiped down with a damp cloth to

remove residual joint compound dust prior to priming.

PLASTER & CONCRETE

New plaster must age 30 days before application of

Bulls-Eye Water-Base. Concrete, plaster, masonry

and related surfaces must be fully cured before priming.

DAMAGED DRYWALL

Damaged drywall should be repaired prior to priming. Spot

prime area of torn drywall facing paper or exposed

gypsum core with GardZ® Problem Surface Sealer

and then skim coat with drywall mud before priming the total

area with Bulls-Eye Water-Base.

MILDEW

Remove mildew stains by washing the surface with a

solution of one cup household bleach in a gallon of water.

Follow label instructions and personal protection

recommendations on the MSDS. Do not add ammonia or

other cleaning products to the bleach solution.

If concerned about mold and mildew behind walls,

underneath flooring, in ventilation systems or other unseen

areas, contact a professional who specializes in mold and

mildew remediation. For commercial buildings and

schools, follow appropriate guidelines for mold removal.

STAINS

Remove existing stains by washing, sanding, scraping,

etc. Water stains, stains form water-based markers and

smoke stains should be primed with B-I-N Primer/Sealer.

Nicotine stains should be primed with Cover-Stain®.

METAL SURFACES

Use Bulls-Eye to prime galvanized metal, aluminum or

previously painted ferrous metals. Prime uncoated ferrous

metals with Bulls-Eye 1-2-3® Primer/Sealer.

WOOD

Sand bare wood smooth using medium to fine grit

sandpaper and remove dust. For new Cedar and

Redwood applications, allow Bulls-Eye Water-Base to dry

24 hours before painting or topcoating.

LIMITATIONS

Bulls-EyeWater-Base is not recommended for exterior

applications such as floors, decks, roof surfaces or any

surface subject to immersion or prolonged contact with

water. Do not box or intermix Bulls-Eye Water-Base with

other water-based products.

APPLICATION

Apply only when air, material, and surface temperatures

are between 50-90ºF (10-32ºC) and the relative humidity

is below 70%. Substrate moisture content should not

exceed 12%. Thoroughly mix to ensure any settled

pigment is re-dispersed before using. In most cases only
one coat is necessary to prime most surfaces. If excessive

absorption occurs over very porous substrates a second

coat may be necessary. Spot priming is recommended

only under high-hiding topcoat finishes. For best results,

prime entire surface before painting. Apply with a

synthetic (nylon, polyester or blend) bristle

brush, roller, or airless sprayer. Follow manufacturer's

instructions when using spray equipment. For airless spraying use a

.015 to .017" tip at 2500 to 2700 psi. Wear

NIOSH approved respirator and provide adequate

ventilation.

THINNING

If thinning is necessary, add no more than 10 fluid ounces

of clean water per gallon and mix thoroughly. Note that

thinning the primer may affect its stain-blocking properties.

TINTING

Bulls-Eye Water-Base may be tinted with up to 2 ounces

of universal colorant per gallon. Tinting the primer toward

the color of the topcoat helps hide in one coat. For mid or

deep tone colors use Bulls-Eye 1-2-3 Deep Tint. Shake or

stir well before using.

DRY TIME

Dries to the touch in 30 minutes, can be recoated in 1 hour.

Lower temperatures, higher humidity, and the addition of tint
will prolong dry and cure time. Allow more time at cooler temperatures.

CLEAN-UP

Clean up spills and paint drips with detergent and warm water.

If spills or drips have dried, use denatured alcohol

or ammoniated detergent to soften and remove primer.

Wash application tools in detergent and warm water

immediately use. Follow equipment manufacturer’s

directions to clean spray equipment. Dispose of unused or

unwanted product in accordance with local laws regulating

water-based coatings.
