Hobby Paint Spray Basic Primer | Black 400 ml. (13.52 fl.oz.) | Perfect Matt and Self Levelling Finish

This is a superb black primer. It's not flat black it's the best it shows light and shadow and it is ultra forming when spraying on Minni's

Great product. I like the two nozzles that are included, a low and high volume tip. I prefer the low volume spray for better control.

*Review Photos are of models sprayed with black primer first then the white primer from above* As a miniature and display painter, I've always preferred Vallejo's black primer for my models. It settles well and nice and even as it dries and doesn't cover up the fine details that I try to get my printer to print out. So when I saw the rattle can version, I thought that it would be a great alternative to having to clean out my airbrush constantly and that it would help get good coverage with my larger prints. I was right. It worked fantastically for covering my larger prints faster while still being able to help on smaller busts that I've been neglecting. I love this product so far. I've already run out and need to order another can. Also, I ended up ordering a can of the white primer too. Like a lot of painters, I like to do a zenithal highlight (highlight from above to simulate light), but the airbrush version always dries closer to a grey than a white. That is unless I let it dry and go back in for a few more passes. That said, the white really shines in this area. I got some nice and bright white highlights with it and have been incredibly pleased with both cans. I recommend it a lot, but make sure to shake it very well even between sprays. And as always, spray in a well ventilated area or outside.

Great primer, layed down smooth on several figures and didn't hide details. Will use again.

While yes, it is $20 for a can of spray paint, it applies thin smooth coats. My go to for priming my 40k mini's.

Works on plastic and metals very well

DO NOT BUY. When I pressed the nozzle paint bled out from under the nozzle coating the outside of the can, and my hand. There were large drips dropping down on the figurine I was spraying. To make matters worse, when I shook it again I got paint splatter on the side of my house (I was working outdoors due to fumes). I've never had an experience like this using spray cans. The entire can was coated as the paint seeped out from under the nozzle, on all sides. On the plus side, it aggressively adhered to my model, my hands and my house. I still have paint on my fingers and fingernails that no amount of scrubbing will remove. Does anyone know how to get this primer off of vinyl siding?

Awesome primer, workers every bit as well as advertised. Dries fast and does a great job of filling in layer lines on printed minis. Only complaint is whatever propellant they're using in this is very, very strong. Even priming outdoors I ended up putting a mask on because the smell was so strong. I'd be hesitant to use this indoors at all.
