Hi All, Now I don`t know a lot about this primer, (well nothing really), but if it does what it says on the tin, sorry, plastic bottle then it sounds good. Non Toxic Non flammable Self Leveling and Sprayable without thinning. As a bonus, made by Badger. ScaleModelShop are a UK distributor and do single pots in two sizes and a set of three different colours in two sizes. Heck here`s a link: PrimerRegards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"

Hi Derek Be interested to see how you get on with this one as i saw it being advertised last weekend and for me it ticks all the boxes. While i have no experience i am going to assume the hardening time might be a little longer in the basis it does not have those quick drying pwerful and stinky solvents in it. I noticed it comes in A range of colours as well so useful indeed. I am wondering if badger have struck a deal with someone like valejo to supply a known product under their own label? Happy Modelling

From what I heard, people swear by them. Pretty common opinion is they are the best on the market. Spray with .4 or .5 needle at 20-30 psi with light covers until base plastic colour disappears and should be perfect. Ready for painting in 5-8 minutes. This happened just after UMP released their line of primers that is just repackaged Stynylrez, just less colours to start with and a bit more expensive. I received my batch of UMP two days ago and if all goes well, I'll have a chance to try them this weekend, so I'll share my impressions.

I used this primer on my T90 build and was very impressed, it gives a beautiful finish. I found I had to ramp the pressure up to 30-35psi with a 0.5mm needle as it's quite thick. It helps to warm the primer up first in a bowl of hot water. I was so impressed I now have every colour that they do

Hmmm I use the Vallejo range, but going by all your comments, I may have to give these a try!
