Review: Great Primer, great flow through airbrush! - I’ve been airbrushing for 50 years and I’ve always used rattle can primer for my models. I wanted to start airbrushing my models and this primer works great! Great flow through my iwata HP-BC airbrush. This paint covers well with great adhesion. The color is a little light for me , I use white resin for my models and it was hard to tell if I covered the whole model. So I mixed in some black airbrush paint and then I could differentiate between my white model and the primer. The hand in my photo was painted before I added the black. The base and the eyeball were painted after I added a small amount of black to the primer. I’m very pleased with this primer and I will use it on all of my models from now on.
Review: Good value and results for airbrushing. - I tried airbrushing this product on GW plastic models and some BattleTech models from CGL. The product sprayed out nicely once I got the airbrush dialed in. I used a single action external mix siphon feed airbrush at about 25-30 psi. I probably could’ve gone lower pressure, depending on the mix (as mentioned below). I experimented a bit with adding in some thinner to the mix at about a 1:2 thinner to paint ratio. It didn’t seem to need the thinner to work though, and I was able to get a good stream by using the straight product too. I take this as a good thing, as it doesn’t need thinner but it plays well with that if you want or need to thin it. It might be nice if you want to do a very thin coat. Adhesion was not a problem, though by test spraying it I could see that it was kind of runny if there was just too much paint in the mix. That was fixed by adjusting the airbrush. The grey is quite like the Corax White spray from GW. It really looks quite white unless you have a pure white against it. This isn’t a drawback, but it does seem to make this more suited for lighter color schemes than darker ones. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone with an airbrush and a lot of models to prime. While $20 for 200ml isn’t super cheap, the amount of priming (and quality priming at that) this bottle can do really blows away the canned competition. You need to have the right gear and sufficient project to justify this, but I don’t think it is a purchase anyone will regret.

## Features

- The primer is the first layer of colour that is applied on the model in order to prepare the surface for the subsequent painting processes. In order to guarantee an excellent adherence it is necessary to apply it on a previously ‘degreased’ surface, therefore it is advisable to wash the model or the figure before priming it in order to remove the remains of release agents.
- Vallejo Primers is a range of acrylic primers specially formulated for airbrushing. Recommended compressor settings for our colours are around 15 - 20 PSI or 0.5 to 1 kg.
- The primers are applied in successive coats and dry quickly, forming a homogeneous film of extraordinary hardness and resistance within a few hours after application. They can be used directly or diluted with our Airbrush Thinner (B002X6DTHK) or Flow Improver (B00QD780G0).
- The grey primer is available in 18 ml (0.6 fl. oz.) bottles with dropper, and 60 ml (2.02 fl. oz.) and 200 ml (6.76 fl. oz.) bottles with hinged cap and dropper.
- Note: The brand Vallejo is currently in the process of rebranding, therefore, for a period of time, it is possible that you may receive the product with either the new packaging or the old packaging.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wow, this stuff is great!
*by J***I on May 13, 2025*

I got one of those cheap chinese no name air brushes just for priming and loaded it up with this stuff. Doesn't matter how bad the air brush, this just coats and sticks like freaking magic. They grey is actually pretty whitish, and I like how smooth it sticks to the plastic, leaving details intact. I specifically sprayed it on some of the cheapest board game quality models I had, some cheesy ones for the intro to D&D box set from 1990s, and they suddenly looked and felt like proper wargaming minis. Playing with acrylics and stains, the primer just soaks things up and sticks. Now I'm eager to go get a better air brush and see how it looks, probably even better details. I have a 30 year old orc battalion box set to paint up, and this right here will be the primer than brings the night goblins to the table.
