there is another product, a shelac spray primer called B-I-N by zinsser(home depot carries this brand). Pretty incredible stuff and shelac sticks to EVERYTHING, so watch your fingernails.... :cool_2: Local paint stores should carry one of the two brands.

I can not find Kilz here in Canada, I wonder if Muttpodge could do the job?

Future and varnish are probably too thin. I'd recommend spraying with Kilz spray primer which should be available in any hardware store.

Covers with a pretty heavy coat, fills sanding marks well, drys flat, fairly quickly and can be sanded smooth.

Hope this helps

Hi,

I made my carrier hull with wood fram and covered it with balsa. I have cover all the surface with drywall putty, looks great but I would like to seal it before painting. Which kind of 'sealer' should I use, Future? Any good varnish?

Thanks
Patrick
