I'm painting some walls and ceilings that have some stains because of a
bad roof. I tried priming it with Kilz2 several times and it still
bleeds through. What do pro's use. TIA

Shellac is an accepted stain blocker. Don't know what Kilz2 is. Premixed
shellac has a shelf life and wont harden if old. Probably not with Viagra
either.

For best results, forget any water based Kilz formula and go with the older
alkyd original Kilz. White pigmented shellac (such as BIN) is also an excellent
product for hiding water and tannin stains.
