I am going to be priming my Aquilons, once the humidity drops below 24,622,864,390,412% (That's what it feels like today).

I forgot to buy primer at the GW store and was wondering if any
old "off the shelf" primer will do?

(I'm just priming some GW plastic... no metal or resin.

OK, was going to buy the flat Grey one, but that's not the right one?

It’s probably fine? You don’t want the gloss/satin/etc finishes. I’ve not used that particular can, so can’t speak on it.

Old pic, they have changed the can a little, but this:

Is what I use.
