AA0014 Enamel Primer - 1: Grey - Matt - 14ml

Humbrol No. 1 Grey Primer is a Matt Enamel first coat supplied in a 14ml tinlet. It preps surfaces before colour painting, improving paint adhesion and levelling texture left by filler and sanding. Humbrol Enamels have been the modeller's standard for decades. Also available as a water-based Acrylic and a solvent-based Acrylic Spray.

Key Features

• Matt Grey primer — a neutral base that keeps light colours and Metallic top coats even
• 14ml metal tinlet, brushed straight from the tin or palette
• Airbrush-ready when thinned at 2 parts paint to 1 part Enamel Thinner
• Touch dry in 20 - 40 mins; hard dry in up to 24 hours
• Solvent-based Enamel bonds to bare plastic where water-based primers can struggle

Ideal For

• Styrene kits primed ahead of Acrylic or Enamel top coats
• Most plastics, resin, wood, glass, ceramics, metal, cardboard, sealed plaster and sealed hardboard
• Filled and sanded repairs, where the grey coat shows up remaining flaws

How to Use

Brush straight from the tin, or thin with Enamel Thinner for airbrushing; clean brushes with Enamel Thinner. Apply two thin coats rather than one thick coat, then wait until hard dry before colour painting. Warning: this solvent-based product requires a well-ventilated area and is not suitable for children under 14 years.
