I primed my Berzerkers black and want to switch to grey. Do I need to strip them or can I use grey primer over it? I'm not sure if it will kill the detail.

you can strip them with simple green. Great stuff works pretty fast too. Filll a glass or bowl with simple green let model stand for 30 mins, then take an old tooth brush to it. As far as re base coating them, you will take a big risk in losing a lot of the detail parts and having your model look clumpy and messy.

Hope that helps.

Adam We has it right.

Excellent, thanks for the help!

Leave it in dawn power dissolver for an hour and then go at with an tooth brush itll come off pretty easily

Why not just use a suitable foundation paint/paints?
Would save having to strip the models

I saw a World Eaters scheme I liked and am trying it. It calls for grey primer to work with the various of coatings/combinations of red. Each layer of paint applied is mixed 1-1 to with water. It turns out good with the grey but doesn't look right with the black. I don't know enough about painting to understand the why.
