ddl Posted October 19, 2017 Report Share Posted October 19, 2017 sorry to ask question again ,even if everybody is talking about zinsser bin i have never seen anyone talking about bin advanced,that's why i think i made a mistake.i just got this one which is bin advanced shellac https://www.rustoleum.com/product-catalog/consumer-brands/zinsser/primer-sealers/b-i-n-advanced-synthetic-shellac-primer-white is that the one everybody's talking about to use with acrylic and thinned epoxy ? at that price i hope it's the good one. would you use a paint brush or a foam brush (sponge on a stick)? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gliders Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Not used bin advanced synthetic shellac ddl, only used standard shellac based bin. ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddl Posted October 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 would you trust the advanced based at this test ? it look really solid for something put over varnish ,it smell almost nothing,just like latex paint.tks for your reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gliders Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Ddl, this seems to be a water based alternative to normal spirit based bin, unlike normal bin it is also flexible. Seems to have decent reviews when tested by furniture makers,decorators etc. I suspect it will be o.k but have not used it, not sure about adhesion over epoxy or varnish compared to standard bin which I find sticks very well, but according to reviews it should be o.k . I don't brush primer personally, I spray it. Another option is dipping and hanging or putting on lure turner. .... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddl Posted October 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 i guess dipping and airbrush gun is just about speed nothing more? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gliders Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 Hi ddl, mostly speed, But spraying gives a nice even coat without brush marks. If time not an issue then you can brush and sand. The bin advanced is better if you wet sand seemingly. .. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddl Posted November 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 hi gliders did you thin it,what's the size of your nozzle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gliders Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Ddl, nozzle on mine is 1.4 mm, I do thin it with de-natured alcohol. Unfortunately I dont measure ratio , just judge viscosity, probably 5 part primer to 1 alcohol. Its still fairly thick ,slightly thinner than single cream ! Basically as thick as you can shoot an even coat with. You don't need an expensive gun either ddl, mine was as cheap as, and not a single problem....glider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gliders Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 Ddl, I'm usually doing several big lures at a time , I wouldn't put bin near my airbrush ! I use an auto type spray gun . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
