wasacop Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 You'll love the Alclad primer! I've only ever had one problem with it when I put it on a bit thick on a Revell Hawk (the plastic hated it but the primer loved it!). You don't need to thin it at all just give the bottle a chuffin good shake, pour it in your brush and spray to your hearts content, about 15psi I think! Goes on lovely as a rule! I clean my brush out using cellulose to leave it squeaky clean! Trust me I used to be a liney!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F4u Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Nice work on Snoopy Debs looks great with the flaps lowered, I'm just converting to acrylics and have gone for the Badger primer which Ultimate Products now do under there name so will see ?

RayB24 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 With the Alclad primer, and as a rule with any laquer based paint the first coat must be a light misted coat, the primer Does etch into the plastic and until the first coat is on you don't want to go hog wild lol or you will have issues. It's neat stuff though. Ray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hendie Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 it's the only (grey) primer I use these days. I just keep spraying until I don't see any more styrene, tin, brass, or bits of stray cat and I'm done. Never had any issues! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ascoteer Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 I'm a wee bit stalled ATM. I've been uber busy with doing stuff with the Cadets, and doing stuff with cars. It's also too bloody cold in my Conservatory to do any spraying. As soon as it warms up a tad I'll be back on it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonM Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I take it it's better than the one about 'my Scout Group, a camp site and a packet of rice'? Mainly because it's aviation related! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayB24 Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 "Where for art though Albert". Has Brexit overcome all modeling, conversely is it so wet and soggy that the modeling bench is underwater. Or is the erstwhile modeler Off having fun with cars. Enquiring minds want to know Ray - who's at the cottage in Nova Scotia, where its uncharacteristally hot and sunny...

perdu Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Well if 'er claims its too blarry cold in her conservatory now I refuses to believe it But summer usually brings new challenges when catering for the needs of the space kaydetts And there's fast cars to whizz about in...

Ascoteer Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 And we're back up and running...2nd Flight Deck on the build: For some obscure reason Photobucket has rotated this photo through 90 degrees and won't let me correct it, so you'll have to twist your head sideways I'm afraid. As you can see, here I'm basing it around the Italeri parts. I haven't yet decided whether this one will be the C1 or the Tanker. I'll probably put Snoopy into primer the morrow. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
