Comments about Interlux Interlux Pre-Kote Primer for One-Part Finishes:

Following directions, this product performed extremely well. Filled minor imperfections and made a great prime coat for the Interlux Topside one-part Polyurethane paint applied (2 coats) as the finish coat. I actually primed and saned the previously painted wood 3 times. I sanded with 120 grit, again 120 grit, then 180 after the 3rd prime. Results excellent. Take your time. Do not apply too thickly.

Comments about Interlux Interlux Pre-Kote Primer for One-Part Finishes:

Used on cabin ceiling. Spread well and filled small imperfections. Sanded easy. I rolled it on and had to watch for lines of thick paint from roller edge. Don't put too much in roller tray at a time because it thickens fast in open container.

Comments about Interlux Interlux Pre-Kote Primer for One-Part Finishes:

Used this product on refinishing a previously painted AMC Alort Puffer 1978 model sailboat. Sanded old paint. Product covered well and sanded OK. However, after applying finish coats, discovered some "orange peel effect" I attribute to my not sanding enough.

Comments about Interlux Interlux Pre-Kote Primer for One-Part Finishes:

This primer is amazing!! Good coverage and fast drying. I have been doing a lot of body work to an 82 performance bass boat and decided to paint due to the extent of body work done. I used a foam roller for application, sanding between coats. By the time I was ready for paint it was flawless!! Great product. Definitely worth the $$.

Comments about Interlux Interlux Pre-Kote Primer for One-Part Finishes:

This was my third boat building project and first one using Interlux. For the other two projects, I used another popular brand. While the other brands worked well, the Interlux Pre-Kote and Brightside provided a smoother finish and so far is more durable. The primer and paint went on smooth and covered well. The only complaint I have is the strong, strong odor. I did use a respirator while applying, but the odor lasted for days around the shop even with the doors open and fans going.

Comments about Interlux Interlux Pre-Kote Primer for One-Part Finishes:

I used this product upon the recommendation of the interlux tech center, [...] I used this primer as an undercoat on the free-board of a Ranger22 sloop. This boat is 30 years old and had many layers of paint. It worked great, two coats of primer then three coats of Brightside polyurethane. I used a paint sprayer to apply all of it.

Comments about Interlux Interlux Pre-Kote Primer for One-Part Finishes:

I'm working on a 1958 Arrowcraft cuddy boat and this is my first time using Interlux Pre Kote. This product is dry to the touch in an hour or so and I gave it a day for sanding and is working great.
