Mold Remediation. How to Get Rid of Mold!
What happens here
Begin applying the Zinsser Mold Killing Primer to the walls. Use the 9-inch roller with an extension pole for large, open areas, working in sections. Once a section is rolled, use the 3-inch angled sash brush to 'cut in' the corners, edges, and around the masked areas. Ensure to roll over the brushed sections while the primer is still wet to eliminate brush strokes and achieve a consistent texture, avoiding 'texture flashing'. The primer covers extremely well, so only one coat is needed. If using the spray primer for touch-ups, follow the same method: mask the area, spray, and then lightly roll over the sprayed area with a mini-roller to blend the texture. The primer dries very quickly, often within 10 minutes to the touch, making it crucial to work efficiently and apply the topcoat within the recommended 72-hour window.
Goal: Apply a single coat of mold-killing primer to all surfaces.
