I am a contractor and a real estate developer in Los Angeles, \u00a0California. I have been building homes for over 12 years. I have built over 150 custom homes, and I count the remodels I have been a part of. Here&#8217;s the thing, most people see the paint. You can\u2019t really avoid it! It is on every wall, and it&#8217;s in every room. When remodeling a home, it&#8217;s important that this finish is done to a level that makes it feel like the home is brand new. My experience using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/primer\/kilz-2?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-fmZBhDtARIsAH6H8qjC2U2vRe-zJ2cqqxzSBU3EcHiCeGtLkCCnvvGoM-SE3Pi1xLUui-4aAmyeEALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\">KILZ 2<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> ALL-PURPOSE Primer<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/primer\/kilz-mold--mildew?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-fmZBhDtARIsAH6H8qjMhQR3YTOL8dospszISiXuB_c1p2p04FpuG_qiQPcwzP0uhHl_m4MaAn4rEALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\">KILZ<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> MOLD &amp; MILDEW Primer<\/a> does just that. Not only does it provide a solid base for my new colors to be applied to, but it can also do so much more!<\/p>\n<p>First off, let&#8217;s keep it simple and discuss what primer does. Primers are like the glue that adheres to the old paint and allows the new coat of paint to look its best and stay on for the long haul.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9013 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/10\/image9-1.jpg\" alt=\"Image painter spraying KILZ 2\u00ae All-Purpose primer onto office walls\" width=\"1000\" height=\"977\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image9-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image9-1-768x750.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here are some of the extra benefits to using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/primer#\/ViewAllProducts\">KILZ<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> primer<\/a>.\u00a0 It has a fast-drying agent in it that allows you to apply the primer and get to applying the color in minimal time. It is water-based, which helps with the odor and makes it easy to clean. KILZ<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> primer is also great for multi-surface primer-sealers. It can help block stains, it is mildew resistant, and has sealing properties along with a very mild odor, which all adds up to a win.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s switch gears and talk about the primary bathroom for a moment. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/primer\/kilz-mold--mildew?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-fmZBhDtARIsAH6H8qjMhQR3YTOL8dospszISiXuB_c1p2p04FpuG_qiQPcwzP0uhHl_m4MaAn4rEALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\">KILZ<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> MOLD &amp; MILDEW primer<\/a>\u00a0 is, in my most humble opinion, the best product I have seen on the market. Truthfully, I would use it on a whole house. Now, obviously, most moisture is hanging out in the bathrooms. But honestly, I am about to rave about this product, so if you don&#8217;t want to hear this, just jump down below.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9004 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/10\/image6.jpg\" alt=\"Image of completed bathroom renovation using KILZ\u00ae Mold and Mildew primer\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image6.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image6-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/primer\/kilz-mold--mildew?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-fmZBhDtARIsAH6H8qjMhQR3YTOL8dospszISiXuB_c1p2p04FpuG_qiQPcwzP0uhHl_m4MaAn4rEALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\">KILZ<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> MOLD &amp; MILDEW Primer<\/a> has all the same great stuff as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/primer\/kilz-2?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-fmZBhDtARIsAH6H8qjC2U2vRe-zJ2cqqxzSBU3EcHiCeGtLkCCnvvGoM-SE3Pi1xLUui-4aAmyeEALw_wcB&amp;gclsrc=aw.ds\">KILZ 2<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> ALL-PURPOSE Primer<\/a>, such as a water-based primer-sealer-stain blocker that is specially designed for residential surfaces. But here is the kicker and why I truly love this product. It is formulated for high humidity, moisture and temperature environments such as kitchens, bathrooms, powder rooms and laundry rooms. I cannot be alone in this\u2026 we have all had to YouTube how to remove mold from a bathroom. And if I am being honest, it&#8217;s not fun to do. You got to get all masked up with gloves on and get to scrubbing. Now this product does not promise that you If I can increase my chances of avoiding mold from growing in my kitchens, bathrooms, powder rooms and laundry rooms and any other room with high humidity, I am all for it!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-9005 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2022\/10\/image7.jpg\" alt=\"7 Image of before shot of office renovation \" width=\"1000\" height=\"1077\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image7.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/image7-768x827.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\nThe problem with most primers is that you never know if you can confidently depend on it. When you find a brand that does the job that you can consistently depend on, you begin to become loyal to that brand. You almost won&#8217;t use anything else! I&#8217;ve used so many bad products that have caused me to do 3 to even 8 coats of paint just to cover what was behind it. Having such an easy experience with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kilz.com\/#\">KILZ<sup>\u00ae <\/sup>products<\/a>, made it easy. I&#8217;ve been looking for the right brand that&#8217;s going to provide me with a consistent outcome.
