Humbrol primer
Posted by moonwoka on Tuesday, September 30, 2003 4:45 PM
Hi, folks

Has anybody used H1, called "primer"? Does it help to get more even coats of color or whatsoever. Is there any use of it?

thanks in advance

hi moonwoka,

I've never used the H1 primer myself. It's designed to give the surface an undercoat that helps the colour paint "stick" to the surface. When I prime my models I use satin white 130. It's just as good, only difference is I like to paint my colours onto a white surface to give better colour definition. It's not neccesary to put primer onto a model, I only use white paint to enhance the colours. So it's entirely up to you. If you want to use a primer, any colour of your choice will do.

hope this helps,

darren
