Kilz Primer can be used on several types of surfaces: wood; plaster; brick; drywall; paneling; masonry and painted metal. Kilz Primer is a heavy-duty primer that can be brushed, rolled or sprayed on a surface, however, due to its viscosity the product must be thinned down for use in a paint sprayer.
Keeping this in consideration, can I spray primer?
Like paints, primers can be too thick to spray, and you might have to thin them slightly to get good results. Some primers are formulated for spray application and don't need to be thinned at all; others lose their effectiveness when thinned.
Simply so, can you use primer in a Wagner paint sprayer?
A) The Control Spray Max and the Control Stainer 350 will spray some latex paints. B) Primer and latex paint & primer in one are not recommended to be used in the Control Series.
Paint spraying is fast, but only after you conclude with the extensive preparation work. Rolling is slower, but it lays down more of a quality coat than spraying does. Without a doubt, you get a thicker paint layer and better color consistency than with spraying.
