While more than a few KILZ brand team members share our homes with dogs or cats, no one likes their home filled with unpleasant stains or odors left accidentally by the family pet. Seemingly hard surfaces in your home including floors and walls can actually absorb stains and smells, making it that much harder to get your place smelling and looking fresh after the dog has made a mess. Luckily, there are KILZ\u00ae<\/sup> Primers formulated specifically to seal and block odors.<\/p>\n

Simply painting over a blemished wall won\u2019t always do the trick and you can be left with stains (and smells!) seeping through. Using the right primer before painting over a pet stain helps with providing a barrier that keeps odor from penetrating the new paint. A great choice for this purpose is KILZ\u00ae<\/sup> Original primer<\/a>. Trusted by professional painters for over 40 years to tackle the toughest odors, this hardworking primer helps to block most heavy interior stains including water, smoke, tannin, ink, marker, pet stains and more. And if you\u2019re looking for a water-based primer that can help seal and block odors, KILZ Restoration\u2122 primer<\/a> is a top pick.<\/p>\n
