Dog1 Posted May 13, 2025 Share Posted May 13, 2025 i bought a Tamiya Leichter scout car that comes with this barrel . instruction says you have to prime with a metal primer first but i find that expensive since i dont have one and i'm not going to spend up to a third of the kits cost just for a one time spray . what solutons are there and what is the best paint for this surface for it to stand out ?

Bob Beary Posted May 14, 2025 Share Posted May 14, 2025 Try Tamiya clear x-22. I believe Chuck Sawyer (now on Large Scale Planes) recommended it and said it works better than any metal primer he has used. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
