I thinkGeorge is referring to the spray primers.

JunJon, if you're talking about the grey and white "Liquid surface primers" in the 40ml jars, there is no difference apart from the colour.

Thanks Hawkeyehobbies. So I guess if you are wanting to hide more you would use the regular surface primer and not the fine. Is this correct and why they have the two grits?

Hello,

I have noticed that Tamiya has a Fine Surface Primer and a Surface Primer. What is the difference in the two?

Thanks,

George
