application easier and less time consuming.

latex paints.

A pigmented acrylic blended latex sealer for priming and sealing bare wallboard. Facilitates stripping of wallcoverings without damage to substrate.
Do not use under pre-pasted wall-coverings. Wall-Grip 2 may also

and latex paints. Can be tinted to pastel shades with up to 2.0
fl. oz. Benjamin Moore¬ Colorants per gallon of sealer. For use
under wallcoverings which do not fully mask the substrate.
