What happens here

After sanding, prepare the Zinsser Triple Thick Peel Stop primer by stirring it thoroughly in its bucket with a paint stirring stick to ensure a consistent texture. Then, using a clean paint brush, apply a first generous coat of this super-thick, high-resin primer to all the previously sanded areas on the door jamb, ensuring that it covers and starts to 'feather out' the edges of the old peeling paint.

Goal: Apply the first coat of high-build primer to cover peeling areas.

Tools and materials

  • Paint Brush — Applying the primer to the door jamb
  • Paint Stirring Stick — Mixing the primer
  • Paint Bucket — Holding the primer during application

What they say

Hide

peel stop right here, sand it, and then I'm gonna put two coats of triple thick, check it out, the super thick primer right here, high resin primer. It's gonna feather out all those edges, and you're not gonna see that. So I'm gonna brush on a coat, then I'm gonna sand it with an Echasil medium sanding sponge, just lightly sand it, then I'll come back and brush on another coat, and everywhere where you had peeling paint,
