tamiya surface primer

Hi Ron.  I used the "Fine Surface Primer" rattle can on my last build, and worked out great, but my main purpose was to use it as a primer for better paint adhesion, not necessarily getting rid of seams.  It helped the RLM 04 yellow adhere pretty well though.

 Good luck,

Bill

There's a few discussions about Tamiya LSP in the tools forum. For all intents and purposes, it's essentially the same as Mr Surfacer 1000.

When used as a primer, it can be brushed on thinly "out of the bottle" - as it dries it will self-level very well, leaving minimal brush marks. Alternatively it can be thinned for airbrushing. It dries quite quickly when applied thinly.

If required, it can be wet sanded easily and feathers out very nicely. It can also be smoothed out without having to sand at all (meaning you can minimise damage to surrounding detail) by using a paper towel/rag moistened with denatured/ethyl alcohol. Unlike Mr Surfacer, you can clean your brushes with ethyl alcohol.

When used for seam filling, it can be brushed on or applied using an implement such as a toothpick. For this purpose, you will need to apply multiple layers as it does shrink quite considerably as it dries. It's also great for filling recessed ejector pin marks.
