What is Kilz used for? Kilz is used as primer for preparing surfaces before painting, with specialty in blocking stains and odors. Uses include priming new drywall, wood, masonry, metal, and previously painted surfaces to improve adhesion of topcoat paint, sealing porous surfaces so paint covers evenly. Kilz Original oil-based is used for blocking severe stains from water damage, smoke, fire, nicotine, tannin bleed from wood, pet urine, and for blocking odors from smoke, pets, cooking, and musty smells. Kilz 2 All-Purpose water-based is used for general priming, light to medium stains, and as base for color changes from dark to light. Kilz 3 Premium is used for better coverage and heavier stains while still water-based. Kilz PVA is used specifically for new drywall. Kilz Mold and Mildew is used to kill and prevent mold on surfaces. Kilz Restoration is used for maximum stain and odor blocking with low odor. Overall, Kilz is used to seal stains, block odors, improve paint adhesion, provide uniform surface, and prevent bleed-through, ensuring topcoat looks better and lasts longer.
