Use of bin (post #123889)

On the back of the bin can it is not recommended for full priming of exterior wood. Why? Since #2 white pine today is mostly knots anyway, why not prime entire board?

I believe the problem is that it is not a very elastic finish. As the wood expands and contracts, large areas of the finish will crack.
