Always an Excellent Primer, Both For the Price and Overall
After GW raised their prices years ago I switch to Army Painter for all my models. High detail models, low detail models, it doesn’t matter. This primer gets the job done, and for a great price.

Worked well for my project
I used this to custom paint my headphones. They’re made of plastic and this primer worked great for that application. It did spray on a little grainy, but this didn’t effect my project. This sanded down well, and it holds paint like you’d expect. I can’t complain for my use, but I wouldn’t use this for miniatures.

I like this product
This is one of my favorite primers to use. You sometimes have to do a few coats but as long as you are not heavy handed the details of miniatures and 3d prints are not lost. I usually use the white primer but other colors work well. I don’t have an issue with my paint adhering to the primer or the primer adhering to the model. I have not noticed the primer chipping off with use only the paint over top which is to be expected, especially when you do not seal the paint. The primer does not take long to dry and I find that one can will last for many many projects.

Can Ruptured, but Army Painter is a great company.
Maybe I’m unlucky. Been using Army Painter Primers for years now. The new can has a tab that needs to be pulled to remove the lid.Went to remove the tab with pliers as instructed on the lid. Instead the can ruptured and I have a new level of wife aggro. Live in Texas, so bringing the can to room temperature and letting the can settle from deliver is important to me.On the bright side Army Painter changed my 1 Star to a 5 Star. Great customer service that has a sense of humor.

Better than most:
I paint a lot of figures, but still am a noob at it. Iâm sure I use way too much primer, paint, or clear coat, so I run out of painting materials quite often. I started out with the small cans from another company and grew tired of only being able to get through two 1/6 figures. So I decided to try this brand out and havenât went back since. Itâs equivalent quality to any others out there, but with significantly more to work with (Iâm sure not everyone will agree, but this is in my particular situation). To be honest, itâs not a lot of money and almost things are reversible, I suggest trying it so your not inevitably wasting your time and money on less or worse products.

Pintura base para miniaturas de calidad y muy buena cobertura.La ultilizo habitualmente para las miniaturas y escenografÃa y me va genial.Tiene muy buena cobertura y sobre todo si la utilizas con las pinturas de la gama speddpaint ofrece una muy buena calidad de cobertura y facilidad a la hora de aplicar las speddpaint.La recomiendo, yo la yao habitualmente y me va genial.Lo única pega pero nada es cuestión de pocos minutos más a no ser que seas muy agonias que tiene un tiempo mayor de secado, nada especial, ya que si pintas estás acostumbrado a esperar secado.

Obwohl wir drauÃen aktuell nur 1-stellige Temperaturen haben, hab ich es mir nicht nehmen wollen, dennoch meine Brettspiel-Miniaturen draussen zu grundieren. Deckt sehr gut, keine Risse (wie bei manch anderer Grundierung). Habe dennoch ein zweites Mal meine Figuren eingesprüht, da ich die eine oder andere Stelle beim ersten Mal nicht erwischt hatte. Trocknet schnell und kurz danach kann man schon mit dem bemalen loslegen. Wie gut die Acrylfarben darauf haften, kann ich noch nicht beurteilen, da ich noch nicht mit dem bemalen angefangen habe. Bin mir aber sicher, das die Grundierung hält, was sie verspricht.

Buona resa, asciuga in fretta e non copre i dettagli
