I used the dry brush technique to prime my figurines and it truly is "The perfect prime, every time". A little goes a long way and it dried within the hour, I didn't have to wait much to start painting. This was one coat and that is all you need.

I struggled on/off for years with airbrushing Vallejo primer, to the point that I avoided airbrushing entirely thinking that it was too finicky. Determined this week to figure it out, I saw this brand recommended. Wow, this is a life changer! Poured into the airbrush without any additional thinning and it went on perfectly at around the settings recommended on the bottle (e.g. 25-30 PSI with a 0.3mm tip). I could not be more pleased!

I build model planes and tanks, and I struggled with primers for so long. I special ordered Gunze Mr Surfacer from China, I decanted Tamiya primer from the can, and I struggled through Vallejo Primers. Vallejo black primer isn't too terrible to use, but their gray is god awful. It would spit, clump, and just perform subpar no matter how long I shook the bottle, or what PSI or distance I sprayed, or how much I thinned it with their thinner or flow improver.I just thought the error in the other primers was with me - maybe I wasn't just good at using them. Then I saw a few reviews for the Badger stynylrez primers and I slowly began to gain hope. I held off for so long, just trying new techniques with my existing primers. But finally I broke down and ordered these primers.What a HUGE world of difference. Absolutely insane. I poured the gray primer straight into my airbrush, cranked the PSI to 30, and sprayed my Tie Fighter from a distance of 4-6 inches, all just like the bottle says to do. This stuff goes on like a dream. It's sooooo easy to use. It covers cleanly, with no spitting whatsoever. Every few minutes, I did find that I would have to do a spray at full pressure just to clear the nozzle, but that was it. The color was perfect for the tie fighter too, I don't think I'll be going back over it with any other color.The gray primer is a bit darker than the other gray primers I used - instead of Vallejo's light gray (which I think is most similar to Tamiya's XF-19, sky gray), this gray primer is much darker. It's more like Tamiya's XF-53, neutral gray. However, I like that - it's not too dark to where you have to pile on your top coat, but it's also dark enough that you can use it a shadow coat if you like.My only lesson learned is to clean your airbrush out every so often. I maybe added more primer in my airbrush cup like 3 times or so, for around a total of 8 minutes, before I cleaned my cup. The paint on the inside had started to solidify and required a bit more elbow grease to remove. It came off great, but my advice is to clean your cup anytime you run out before adding any more primer. When I started cleaning my cup before I refilled it with the primer, this issue completely resolved. The primer came out easily with just water.Bottom line, this stuff is the best primer I've ever used. It sprays like a dream, the coverage is incredible, and I experienced absolutely no issues with it. Just be sure to clean your cup regularly when using it.

I was dissatisfied with the performance of Vallejo primer and looking for something else to try. I saw some good reviews for this primer and decided to test it out. I'm glad I did. This goes on very well with an airbrush without any thinning needed, although it will dry on the needle periodically which is to be expected with any kind of acrylic. This is very durable and I have yet to see any peel off plastic parts, and it sands down well without peeling or coming off in chunks/pieces. It does a good job of covering evenly over fine details and evens out exceptionally well as it dries, preventing a lot of pools or runs if you go a bit heavy. This is now my first choice for primer, and the 3-pack gives me all the options I need for whatever colors or surfaces I'm working with.

After reading other reviews, I guess I got lucky. My bottles came sealed and were fresh and new (no clumping). They cover fantastically! Put right in the airbrush they work great around 35-40 PSI w/ a 0.3mm tip. I experimented with thinning them (w/ windex) but it would bead up. So far I'm very happy with this purchase. Even though the bottles are small they have already lasted beyond what I expected.I used them on plastic (Gunpla to be specific) with no sanding. I washed the parts, but that's it. I have had no issues with paint lifting off the surface and it takes a very hard scratch to scrape it from the surface once cured.I will be buying this product again.

I have used all three colors so far, and am reasonably happy with them. Not sure if I would buy this three pack again, or instead get the larger bottles; my only concern would be I couldn't use the contents of the larger bottles quickly enough before they dried out. I have no idea how well this paint will hold up to time, nor have I used any of this paint system on metal. Also, I am not sure how well it would stand up to use on gaming miniatures without a protective clearcoat, but static models shouldn't have any special problems.There have been no issues with paint adhesion to the bare parts. There is a decent pigment load (with qualification below) and will cover quickly with both airbrush and by hand. They can be used in an airbrush straight from the bottle, but thinning them slightly, especially if it is below ~75F, can be helpful. All three colors are surprisingly sensitive to temperature, and had the white clog up the airbrush to the point that I had to disassemble it entirely to get semi-solid clots out of the mechanism.I've so far used on these primers Vallejo Model and Model Air, Privateer, and some surprisingly old but still viable Games Workshop paints with no problems at all. The primers and above paints also mixed well together.I have experimented with some Liquitex acrylic paint additives (matt, slow dry, iridescent, and gloss) and they seem to work well with these Badger primers thus far.Predictably, the white is the more problematic of the three. It takes many more coats to conceal the color of the plastic or other material than the grey and black primers. The white for whatever reason seem to clump up more and generally be significantly more difficult to spray...or maybe I'm just lucky.
