KILZ
KILZ 2 All-Purpose Interior Latex Primer, 5 Gallon
$89.00
A water-based primer, which is the important limitation: it seals light stains and gives topcoat adhesion, and it will not block heavy water, smoke or tannin stains -- those need a shellac or oil primer.

GRK #10 x 3 in. Star Drive Construction Screws, 100-Pack
$29.97
The star drive is the point: it does not cam out the way a Phillips head does, so the driver stays in the screw and the head survives being driven and backed out repeatedly.
