Fresh Start
The all-purpose primer. It blocks water stains, smoke and wood bleed, and is tinted deep beneath saturated colors.
In use
What it’s for
Fresh Start is the primer for difficult surfaces: water stains that return through paint, smoke and nicotine, knots and tannin bleeding through wood, and a long list of surfaces from drywall to tile to hardboard.
Tinted in a deep base, it lets the brightest, most saturated colors cover in two coats rather than four.
