You gotta use Tamiya plastic primer or automotive primer, the lacquer will attack any acrylic or enamel paints underneath it.

i use primer, usually testors enamel primer.
i'm having a hard time finding White Primer.

what i meant was using a primer then putting a base coat of acrylic and then the tamiya synthetic lacquer to finish the job...
