I've used the Builder Solution primer. It's expensive but works great.

what benefits do you get from using these products?

It does a great job at keeping the joints from photographing through the paint. Too many times you can do a great job with finishing your drywall but still you still see the seams...

Hey regal
are you guys using aura now, we wont' have it until March 08,any feedback on that product would help me out, thanks

Jakester my man, $47.00 a gallon, SELF PRIMING on plaster and drywall. ANY COLOR the darker the better 2 coats DONE! The weird part about the stuff: You have to cut in first then let it dry before you roll. Using the "Aura" roller cover (Its a micro fiber cover) helps. Total seamless wall when done, touches up perfectly.

I have sold this product to the college and hospital with great results, but as with any high build product you do have to apply up to 25 mils wet to get the proper results

Hey SWPkvale way up north, this is your former sales rep turned store manager up north. Open up your ability to receive IM's and I'll thwart you with insults.
