TAMIYAGray Fine Surface Primer L, 180ml Spray Can

I ordered this primer for a nice fine grey color for customizing a couple of wing gundam zero model kits, the seller shipped me white instead of grey but that's fine. I purchased and used this product a while back to paint an rg wing gundam ew kit and it's absolutely perfect for grey color separation. I'll gladly keep the white primer since I needed that as an actual primer but I'm definitely ordering the GREY again to paint an MG wing gundam zero ver ka that I'm planning for a spring/ summer project. This is definitely the best paint/primer I've ever used. The grey this is advertised as is in my photo on my rg wing gundam as all the lightest grey parts, the darker grey is light ghost grey.

I've used Rust-O-Leum primer from Home Depot for a while on 40k models and it is generally pretty good. With a recent kitbash project I didn't want to take any chances so I picked up the Tamiya Fine Light Gray surface primer. As you can see from the images (screenshots from my Instagram) the coverage is excellent, and details are preserved. Yes, it is more expensive, but it is also formulated for this kind of work. When I'm spending hundreds of hours on projects, I will pay for high quality materials like this. There were no nozzle jams, paint dribbling down the can, or random chunks flying out of the can.IMPORTANT: This is LIGHT Gray, it isn't dark at all. In fact it's so light that I didn't bother using the other can of Tamiya White Fine Surface Primer for the zenithal highlighting pass. As far as I have found, White and Light Gray are the only 2 colours that Tamiya makes for their Fine Surface Primer formulated for plastics, no dark gray or black unfortunately.

Fantastic application - dries quickly though I do recommend waiting a day before painting over it, just to be on the safe side (at least a few hours) - hard to do when you're excited to paint! It doesn't gum up the tiny details as long as you're careful.

This very fine primer is now my first choice for N scale plastic. It goes on smoothly and is thin enough to cover but not ruin the details on small scale items. The larger size is also much appreciated.

I'm not a fan of the price for such a small can, but it really is a very smooth and great primer. I used it for small 32mm miniatures with extremely tiny details, and this primer is able to really keep and preserve them well. Even with the price, this is still now my go-to primer.

I used this to prime about half of the figures in the Warhammer 40K Dark Vengeance box set. It's a very good primer, but the small size means it ran out quicker than I had hoped. I'll probably stick to bigger cans of Duplicor or Rustoleum in the future, they're cheaper and work almost as well.

Got it quick and in good condition

Always excellent products!
