Review: Good stuff! Easier than painting primer on and looks better - I started painting minis by using paint on black primer for awhile. Eventually decided to try this and it's a way better option! Very important to shake it for a minute or so and spray out before using on minis. I spray from above and find the consistency of the primer coat is so much more even then when I did it by hand. It's easy to miss spots, so I'll check the mini from all angles before moving on. Good for dark characters and shadow layer in slapchop style.
Review: Noob Friendly with Professional Results, Really - I feared I'd spray my N scale models with blotches or whatever. That never happened, what happened were easy passes that resulted in a solid coat of primer without clogging any brick detailing Pros: - Very user friendly, even if you rarely ever use spraypaint (like me) - Relatively affordable - Excellent professional quality (even my cheap acrylics adhere to it just fine) - Sprays cleanly without feeling like you have to press down too hard (if you're doing short bursts on small objects, this matters a lot) Cons: - I really wish they'd add a rotating nozzle like newer spraycans have so we can decide how it sprays out Usage: - N Scale Train layouts using Resin prints, with ultra fine detailing - it does great

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 100% worth the cost.
*by B***Y on November 17, 2025*

Why should I pay 3x as much as I would at a hardware store? Well as with most TAP products, the paint quality is the absolute best. I just primed about 20 standard sized minis and barely made a dent. You shouldn't need more than one coat the coverage was so good I only needed to chase around little angles I missed. Like seriously, if you care about quality when painting minis there is no better primer on the market. The addition of essentially a base coat as well saves me plenty of time. I like necrotic flesh as a primer because it's a neutral greenish gray that can really go any direction. Looks somewhat like army sand color. I'll never use another kind of primer
