ARMY PAINTER PRIMERS, MATT PROTECTION
The Army Painter
I received a large selection of products from Army Painter but do not want to wait until I have tried them all out before telling everyone how much I like their products. The spray paints come in 400ml/13.5oz bottles (larger than other US spray products) and easy to identify caps (I did mix up sprays for a project for my ex once but, fortunately, never for my own projects!)
The black primer is the best black primer I have tried. It gave a very nice, smooth and complete coat with the first spray that required very little touching up. I really liked the gentle way the spray came out of the nozzle – finally, a black primer that did not shoot my figures across my priming area. This was especially important when priming the new plastic figures I got from Warlord – their lighter weight would have caused them to become projectiles when using my usual black primer.
The matt protection also produced very nice results with a single round of spraying (I prefer four light coats from each dial of the compass.) The spray produced a very dry finish that did not alter the color of the figures at all (some popular matt finishes produce a very wet spray; others alter the finished colors and leaves a dusty coat on the figures.) The sprayed figures were almost immediately dry and ready to pick up and put away.
I was very impressed by these two sprays. They are definitely worth trying to see if the results fit your painting needs! I have included photos of primed "Old Glory" Nuns; please refer to the post related to "Army Painter Paint Brushes" to see finished figures that used the black primer and matt protection!
