This Zinsser Bulls Eye 123 primer is ideal for priming iron railings, steel doors, metal panels, ductwork and galvanised gutters before topcoating, where its rust-inhibitive properties help protect bare metal in the period before painting. It is also suitable for high-humidity areas such as bathrooms and laundry rooms, where the dried coating’s resistance to fungal degradation helps the finish last. Once dried, the coating is classed as a treated article and contains a surface biocide that helps protect the film against mould and mildew on both the surface and underside of the primer layer. Choose your size from the options above.
Please refer to the product packaging and technical data sheet for full surface preparation and application guidance before use, and allow the full recoat window to pass before applying a topcoat for the best adhesion.
