Prepaint Cleaner/Deglosser

Rust-Oleum® Krud Kutter® TSP Substitute prepares surfaces for proper paint adhesion. If paint is peeling, fisheyeing or refusing to bond, the problem is not the brush. It is usually surface contamination.

This powerful cleaner cuts through dirt, grease, grime, nicotine residue, smoke buildup, food stains, heel marks, crayon, old wallpaper paste and wax that interfere with adhesion. It also deglosses existing finishes, creating a clean, dull surface that helps new paint bond properly.

Use it on painted or unpainted wood, metal, vinyl wallpaper and surfaces coated with varnish, lacquer or polyurethane. It is ideal for cabinets, furniture, doors and trim that need a properly prepared surface before primer application.

The water-based formula is nontoxic, nonflammable and xylene free, making it safe for home or jobsite use. There is no harsh odor hanging in the air. Best of all, it’s no-rinse; simply apply full strength, wipe clean and move straight to painting.
