Fantastic Product
Worked like a charm. Smooth, even, coats that preserve the detail on the figures. I’ve seen complaints about clumping, but I think people aren’t reading the directions. Every time I use it, I shake the can back and forth clockwise/counter clockwise for the full minute suggested and I’ve had zero issues. Will buy again!

Excellent Product
Excellent coverage. Excellent adhesion. Be advised: it does lay the paint on thick if you get too close to the mini. $10 less than the citadel at time of purchase and honestly a better product. More satin than flat, I would say but still a deep rich black. I like the satin because it picks up highlights more, but if you're looking for a super flat flat, this is not the one.

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.

good could be better but works well then used properly
works well for priming miniature but if instructions are not followed properly it can create splotches and texture there were no leaks the color is a good white it is easy to apply to clean models and it looks fantastic when smoothly applied make sure prep everything as to get the best result and the paint is not easily removed from models

Works great, only concern is price
Works great, dries fairly quickly, and lasts for a good amount of minis. Sometimes struggles to get all the areas of the mini evenly but this is more of a skill issue on my end than on that of the pain. Sprays well, doesn't seem to leak. Smells strongly so I recommend you use it outside. My only real issue with it is that it feels a little overly pricey even for what I got, but I understand production systems play a part and beyond that have no real concerns.

My Craft room is always stocked
I keep a supply of this on hand in my craft room for the shiny projects that I want to have a matte finish. There are items, like rub on transfers or paint, that have a glossy finish and this matte spray is phenomenal at covering the shine, but still keeping the colors. Spraying too close, though, causes a cloudy thickness but the proper distance from the project works perfectly. The smell is not the most pleasant so we spray in the direction of the wind, and with gloves on. Once it dries, the odor is gone.

Poor Quality and Unpredictable results
Let's face it, when you put a lot of time into painting a miniature, you are already invested. That much time and effort deserve a good product. I've used Army Painter Quickshade on literally hundreds of miniatures with excellent results. (I tried using stain as a dipping method because it was so much cheaper but I wasn't happy with the results.) Because Quickshade gave such excellent results, I decided to use the partner product "Army Painter Anti-shine". The first can or two was okay, nothing fabulous but it really made the Quickshade look good. After a couple of cans, I got what I thought was a bad can and it sprayed white all over my miniatures. This experience was repeated on three more cans of the product out of four cans over a year or so. I always followed spraying instructions to the letter, but I stored the cans in the garage where I thought they might have been damaged because of extreme temperatures. (I'd had good results in the past, so it seemed logical.) I recently (September 2018) bought one last can, which cost $15 and took a full week to arrive because spray paint has to be delivered by ground. I kept the can in the house for a week until I had proper spraying weather and again, followed the directions to the letter, only to find white residue on newly painted and dipped miniatures. Very disappointing! I remembered that I had an old can of Krylon (clear flat) that was used for a Halloween craft project a couple of years ago in the garage. (Walmart, $4.97 for a 25% larger can... This spray had been exposed to the same elements the Anti-shine cans had.) I decided to try it on one miniature, so I picked one I didn't like as much and ten seconds later, it was perfect. No overspray. No shine. No extra coats. No waiting. Done perfectly at 1/3 the cost! I'm convinced! Anti-shine is simply not a reliable product, particularly for the price point. If you are a haven't tried Quickshade yet, by all means, do so. You won't regret it. It's definitely worth the extra cost, but do yourself, your wallet, and your miniatures a favor and stay away from Army Painter Anti-shine. I'd give it zero stars if I could.

Exceptional Customer Service!
I purchased and received a can of primer that had a defective nozzle, and Amazon was unable to provide a return or exchange. I reached out to The Army Painter support team directly and received a prompt response from Iben. They handled the situation professionally, explained their quality control process, and verified my information quickly. I received a replacement can within a week. It is clear this company stands by its products and values its customers. Their direct support far exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend them for both their paints and their commitment to service. I have been painting miniatures for over 30 years and i FULLY ENDORSE THIS BRAND!! This Mat White Primer is GORGEOUS! I'm doing an all black and white set for D&D so the primer is essential for this project and I couldn't be more impressed with the results. The Arm Painter has made me a loyal customer for life!

Top - Grundierung
Zum Grundieren von Miniaturen eignet sich diese Grundierung super. Sie lässt sich super einfach auftragen und deckt sofort. Sie fließt auch hervorragend in kleine Vertiefungen ohne diese dabei auszufüllen und die Struktur der Figur zu verdecken. Die im Anschluss aufgetragenen Farben halten sehr gut. Man sieht die Grundierung auch nicht durch, egal ob nach der Grundierung mit dunklen oder hellen Farben gearbeitet wird. Die Grundierung mit dem Spray spart im vergleich zum Pinsel enorm viel Zeit. Ich habe die Grundierung bislang nur auf Kunststoff verwendet zu anderen Materialien kann ich keine Aussage treffen.

Goid Primer
I bought The Army Painter Color Primer in White to prep a black metal piece, and the results are fantastic. The coverage is impressive—it managed to mask the original black surface perfectly. What I loved most was how quickly it dried; it was touch-dry in just a few minutes, which really sped up my project. The finish is smooth and creates the perfect base for the final coat of paint. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a professional-grade primer

Está muy bien pero
Compro cualquier clase de imprimación oscilando entre 4-8 euros, de buena calidad. El precio me parece levemente exagerado, pero el producto es bastante bueno.
