Re: Does Bunnings sell no VOC or low VOC Primer for bare wood

Hi @Steve5,

 

Thank you for your question on low and no VOC primers.

 

I have not been able to find a primer that is low or no VOC that is kept in stock in our stores. The closest I have found is Zinsser 3.78L Bulls Eye Primer Undercoat Sealer And Stain Blocker which at 85g/L of VOCs sits in the moderate band as defined by CSIRO.

 

Rustoleum produce a zero VOC primer called Zinsser® Bulls Eye Zero™ which might be orderable as an off-range item from your local store's Special Orders desk. Unfortunately, as it is Saturday and Rustoleum's offices are closed, I am unable to call and confirm whether this is possible.

 

If you'd like me to contact them once their offices are reopened to make some enquiries, please let me know, I am more than happy to assist further.

Hi Jacob,

 

Thanks for your email.  Yes, please check if Noosaville special orders can obtain the  Zinsser® Bulls Eye Zero™.  Can you also check how long it takes to get it?

 

Thanks

Hi @Steve5,

 

I've reached out via private message to put you in touch with their Special Orders team.

 

In the interim, I have also found Zinsser 3.78L Smart Prime Undercoat which is a low VOC primer that is stocked at the Noosaville store.

 

Let me know what you think.


Jacob
