Tamiya White Primer

Bought a can today(normally use grey primer) I honestly think its better than Tamiya white. I bought, TS-7 I think, and TS-46, Racing White and Pearl White respectivley, and honestly, Primer is a far richer, brighter white, in the vein of Toyota Super White IV, whereas Racing WHite is more like ITR Championship white, and Pearl White is more of a bling bling VIP car colour

Yeah, I just used that on my ITR and my friend's Skyline and it turned out pretty good even though it's my first car model.

I dont use polish anyways...

That white is fairly shiny(the primer) and its a very good match for Super White. I know someone with a Lexus, and the paint is quite close.

No polish? You're models must not be very shiny, unless your P-man.

Nope, there not. Most of them suck anyways, and my half-decent one was painted flat black anyways, so I dont need polish for that
