It primes new drywall and plaster with good adhesion and hide, and it dries to a low-permeability, non-breathing film that acts as a Class II vapour barrier, rated 0.58 perms under ASTM D-1653. Painting contractors and builders use it on interior walls and ceilings in basements, bathrooms, kitchens and other rooms where moisture vapour is a concern. It's low VOC, tack free in an hour, and takes latex or solvent-based paint.
