Hye GunPla Gurus.

I have recently bought a Mr.Primer Surfacer 1000 from a shop in E@curve. As i was told, a primer was suppose to be the 1st coating for your gunpla models.
But i soon found out, the primer had a white ish colour, so whenever i sprayed it on a red colour plastic, itll look a little white ish.... Is that how a Mr.Primer Surfacer 1000 suppose to work?

Also, where can i get a Mr.Top Coat Flat base / semi gloss. Couldnt find one. I live In Kelana Jaya, a shop closer to Kelana Jaya would be nice.. Thank you gundam gurus!

suppose the color will be in grey color. nex time u use try soak the spray can in 'WARM' water, well shake then oni using it.


btw u can use commercial primer spray as well. i been using anchor brand primer (rm6.50-rm7), works fine for me ( for spraying dark tone color la, light tone better use white primer)

ok lemme try to so a simple step by step guide. ok good?

1. remove parts from runners
2. make parts easy to dissemble. either trim male peg, or enlarge female peg
3. snapfit & look for seamlines
4. cover seamlines with either cement or putty
5.1. dissemble kit
5.2. prime parts. this can be done with either AB or spray can
6. paint parts desired color. paints available are acrylic, enamel and lacquer. the strength of each paint is in that order from weakest to strongest
*note: steps 4,5.2,6 can be ignored if you so wish to. BUT don't ignore step 5.1*

7. gloss coat. like primer this can be done by either AB or spray can (optional)
8. panel line. this can be done with either lining marker or enamel paint
9. decals. use mark softener for uneven surfaces and setter to help decals adhere better.
10. top coat. you can either go flat, semi gloss or gloss. again, like primer this can be done by either AB or spray can
11. assemble kit back.
12. pose kit
13. LEAVE KIT ALONE. THIS IS NOT A TOY!!

hope this solves the barrage of questions.  cool2.gif
