It doesn't sand like the old primers, but when I really need a high build primer, I'll shoot some 2-part high build auto primer.

Also, you can buy Benny Moore oil based primer in quarts for your trim and today's acrylic finish coats go over that well.


Thanks Milt,

The oil based primer was what I was thinking as well, but I have heard that the oil based stuff are worthless nowadays. So, would you use Gripper or Moore's oil based primer in my situation? De-glossing that coffered ceiling is going a b!tch.
