Question New here and need some help

First of all I want to say great forum and you guys produce some beautiful models. I found this forum a while back but am just now posting because of my problem. I got a Fujimi 1/12 scale veilside R32 for x-mas. This thing is huge and very detailed. Well I washed all the parts and primed them and let them dry for a day or so. Then I sprayed some of the parts with Tamiya paint and let it dry. After it dryed another part scraped it and the paint came off really easy. I never have had this problem with normal testors paints. Did I use the wrong kind of primer for the Tamiya paints or did I thin it down wrong? Thanks guys

Sounds like you have used the wrong primmer and the Tamiya paint wont work with it.
What primmer did you use??

I used testors because I tried mixing the tamiya primer and it didn't come out right. Thanks

Which Tamiya paints did you use? The acrylic won't stick to Testors primer (enamel).
