Blow drying/ hair drying primer

What I did so far is add three coats of primer to my model, with about one hour and half betwen each coat. Right now, it has been a little bit more than 12 hours and time is sunning out for me. I was wondering if I could hair dry the primer on the model with hot air so that I can have it ready within an hour or so.

No, don't use a hairdrier on your model, you risk damaging the plastic and causing warping through spot heating it.

What kind of primer did you use and what kind of paint did you use?
