Troubleshooting
Primer is not adhering properly.
Ensure the surface is properly prepared (clean, dry, and sanded if needed). Make sure you are applying the primer within the correct temperature range.
Stains are bleeding through.
Apply a second coat of B-I-N AQUA, allowing proper drying time between coats. For stubborn stains, a third coat may be necessary.
Odor is not fully sealed.
Ensure complete coverage of the affected area. Apply additional coats of primer, if necessary, and allow for adequate drying time.
