You need the Pure brilliant white
(ZP-1032)
I prefer Tamiya's primer. Light grey first to highlight flaws
(TAM87064)
Then Tamiya white primer (before your Pure brilliant white basecoat)
(TAM87044)
You can thin all of these paints (if necessary, they come pre thinned but it depends on your airbrush, you may need to thin them a bit more) with basecoat thinner from Zero
(ZP-5004)
The Zero paints need a clear coat as well. You can use Zero 2K urethane clear
(ZP-3006)
or Zero Clear coat lacquer
(ZP-3002)
You can of course use any good automotive type primer suitable for plastic if you wish. Hiroboy also does his own Zero primer which is good too. Also all the popular hobby clears work well over the Zero basecoat paints as do most automotive clears.
Zero Pure brilliant white (on Tamiya MP4/7)
Zero MP4 red (on same MP4/7)
Finisher's red on MP5/B
