      I plan to use Kilz Oil based primer to cover the dark stain. It says not to have any electric motors starting up, since it could cause fumes to explode. Should I unplug the refrigerator during the priming process? It’s a small, alley kitchen with one small window. I’ll ventilate what I can, but was concerned about the fridge.
