Hi All, I am all rared up and ready to tackle my dated flat, this is the first time I've done any DIY (!!!) and it's all so exciting! 
Has anyone used this product before? I need to paint over pale pinky-grey ceramic tiles in kitchen and bathroom and this seems to tick the boxes
Also how much would I need? my kitchen is 9'7 X 8'9 and my bathroom similar, assuming floor to celing tiles. 10 litres?

i've used zinsser primers and as a rule they are an excelent paint ,
i would get 5lts to start with , it should go quite a long way0 -
I have used bullseye 1-2-3 which they use on a vanished ceiling and it adheres to it like glue excellent product
Expensive paint but worth every penny, Dulux didnt even come close and told me to remove the vanish, which would take ages and mucky job, 30 mins of paint primer and I then have a good key for ceiling paint.0 -
Thank you, I'll go for it

make sure the tiles are nice and clean and dry before you paint - esp the grout0
