ECOS Wall Primer is a non-toxic, zero VOC ultra-low odor primer that's safe for everyone. It's a sustainable architectural coating made for previously painted walls or ceilings indoors or outdoors. ECOS Wall Primer is made without solvents or hazardous chemicals and contains no biocides or fungicides.
Like all premium quality primers, ECOS Interior Wall Primer hides very well. It applies with brush, roller, or spray, leaving a beautifully smooth, even finish. One thing that makes ECOS unique is its coverage; one gallon covers 400 SF per coat.
NOTE: This primer should not be used over wood with tannins that will bleed through such as cedar, oak, walnut, red alder, cherry, or other oily woods.

Application Instructions
Protect from frost/freezing.
Where to use:
Use on previously painted surfaces as a smooth and clean bonding finish prior to painting with a topcoat.
Application:
Stir gently/thoroughly before and during use.
Surfaces should be clean, dry, sound, and free from dirt, dust, grease, and loose or flaking material. Use a damp cloth/sponge to remove dust, a dry cloth/sponge will rarely suffice. Clean stubborn areas with mild detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly before painting. Soft or crumbly substrates should be pre-treated.
Do not apply below 50°F (10°C).
Apply by brush, roller, or airless sprayer.
Roller: tightly woven, shed-resistant 3/8” to 1/2” roller cover.
Sprayer: 0.015” to 0.017” tip at 1600 to 1800 psi.
Spread so as to give an even, thin coverage.
Allow to dry thoroughly before painting.
WARNING: Older buildings may contain lead-based paint, which requires professional
remediation if it is disturbed. If in doubt, consult with a professional from a Lead-Safe
Certified Firm.
Drying Times:
This is highly dependent on the conditions of use, but normal drying is in the range of 1 to
4 hours (local ventilation, humidity, and temperature). Allow 24 hours before sanding or painting.
Coverage:
In most applications:
400 Sq Ft per Gallon (single coat)
Normally only one coat is needed.
Clean Up:
Clean equipment with water.
Health & Safety:
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Wash off splashes with water. Keep out of reach of children.
