Zinsser 2101 Shieldz Clear Wallpaper Primer, 1 Gallon

Zinsser Shieldz Clear Wallpaper Primer is a fast-drying acrylic sealer and sizing compound designed to prepare a variety of surfaces for wallcovering application. This single-step primer seals, primes, and sizes surfaces simultaneously, eliminating the need for separate products. Whether you're hanging prepasted wallcovering or working with challenging surfaces, this primer creates a uniform sealed surface that improves adhesion and makes positioning wallpaper easier.

This primer is particularly valuable for surfaces that are difficult to stick wallcovering to, such as glossy painted finishes, existing vinyl wallcovering, and wood paneling. By preparing these hard-to-stick surfaces directly, Shieldz bonds where other primers may struggle, helping prevent common wallpapering problems like poor adhesion, open seams, shrinking, and raised edges. The primer can be tinted to help conceal joints and seams for an enhanced finished appearance.
