General Finishes

Details

Stain Blocker from General Finishes® is a revolutionary water-based white primer for interior projects. Stain Blocker can be used to protect pigmented finishes from stain, dye and wood tannin bleed-through. Use over an existing finish, raw wood or MDF as a base coat for light colored General Finishes Milk Paint, Chalk Style Paint and Pigmented Polys.
