Would appreciate any suggestions . . .
Out of the bottle, Vallejo's Zinc Chromate, 71.094, is spreading incredibly thing via handbrushing.
Is there any primer (grey or dark yellow (70.604)) that could help?
I have to admit I tried a short cut, in aircraft wheel wells, not to apply primer, but still after 3 coats of Zinc - it's still incredibly thin on application.
Any thoughts you may have would be apprecieated.
That's from the Model Air line,its made specifically for airbrushing,no thinning required to airbrush, so its pretty thin already,not good for brush painting.
Thanks for the info. Simply didn't know.
Will have to find equivalent for hand-brushing then. Best.

Anytime,
I did look up their Model Air line again,and they do claim it could be hand brushed but I do have a few bottles and its like water,so I don't know
Take the top off it and get in there all the way to the bottom and stir it up well. You need the pigments that have settled to the bottom to be mixed in, then it will be better. You need to do this for all vallejo paint every time you use them. Most people don't. They are excellent when stirred up then shaken a little, but really stir it up from the bottom.

I'll offer some good hobbit-sense: Short cuts make long delays. I always prime the wheel wells on my aircraft.
In fact, is there an aircraft on which it wouldn't take more work not to prime the wheel wells, when we prime the rest of the model?

look into Vallejo Game Color 030 Goblin Green. Game Colors are like Model Color, designed for brush painting -- they just have neater names. Vallejo Game Air is similar formula to Model Air. I've also thrown a Vallejo Mecha color into my palette if needed. Panzer Aces is another Vallejo brand - useable for armor items.
If there is a Warhammer store nearby, look for Citadel paints Warboss Green - see what I said about neat names
