I've never used it myself, but I suspect that if it's that thin it is probably intended to be airbrushed and not hand brushed.

Make sure it is stirred well and there are no chunks at the bottom.

That's acrylic paint for ya.

I use it and like it. Then again, I've yet to really use anything else. MusicCity is right about the airbrushing. I've never had any success with brushing it on.

Don't thin it.
Do stir it a lot.

i had stirred the daylights out of it
and this was not the mm for air brush this was the reg hand brush stuff
and as far as acrylics i like them i use them with enamels all the time
maybe the person at testors was sniffing enamels when he/she filled the bottle with colored water lolLaugh [(-D]

I like the primer, but most of the time I have to thin it down a bit. quality contol might be an issue with them.

By the way does anyone know where to get a bigger quanity of primer. this bit of buying a 1/2 oz at a time sucks. I have 30 models on my bench at the moment, ( my wife and family all bought me models for my birthday lol) they all know I am board and will be mostly home bound for quite awhile.

thanks
