Re: About Primer
I get my primer from Walmart, labeled as Colour Place here in Canada cost about $3-$4 bucks a can and is about 3xs the size of Tamiya's large can. It's abit darker grey then Tamiya's light grey and abit heavy when applied but the cost differential is too good to pass up. I also buy my base colours from Walmart, I use the Krylon indoor/outdoor paint, costs about $4 a can and is often on sale for 2 for $5ish. I use black/flat white/flat flat aluminium and the clear and have had no issues as of yet with these paints reacting badly, even with Tamiya sprays. Only issue I had was two cans of glass black coming out like a mixture of flat/gloss. I contacted Krylon an they sent me 2 replacement cans as well as an extra can. Now I still use Tamiya paint for the specific colours that match particular race cars etc, but using the paint from Walmart saves a lot of money on the commonly used colours.
