Primer spraying clear?

I was airbrushing some primer on my Mini Cooper model and my Civic's interior and the primer showed up clear on the plastic and left this weird texture behind and I'm really pissed off. I was using Model Masters Acrylic Primer. :swear:

What color was the primer meant to show up?
Did you use the right thinner with the primer?

I didn't thin it. It looked like the consistency of milk so I thought it would be fine. It was supposed to show up white.

Did you mix it thoroughly before spraying?

The pigment and carrier agent may have separated and if you didn't thoroughly mix them before hand you may have just been spraying a lot of carrier agent with very little pigment.

D'oh! No I did not mix it. :banghead: Well I guess I'll try again tomorrow. Thanks for the help freakray.

are you talking about Model Masters bottle (14ml) or paint you extracted from spraycan ?

Was it a Sandy texture?

Actually, I was just confusing it with the texture of the plastic. It didn't actually leave a texture behind. I'm gonna try and pick up some Tamiya Primer because this stuff is junk.

haha, geofroley, I think you need some sleep :D

Haha I could use some of that. :iceslolan
