<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Primer over Primer"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Primer over Primer GW Primer instead. Now, can I reprime them in white over the black to save time? Or should I just strip all 30 boyz with Purple Power? Thanks in advance.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291571.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291571.page GMT Primer over Primer
Oh and check some of the hundreds of posts in other places on better spray primers (seriously, there is a thread on it weekly) there are MUCH better AND cheaper spray can primers out there.

If you are referring more to bonding than obscuring detail, yes you can primer over primer.

Best of luck!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291581.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291581.page GMT Primer over Primer http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291586.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291586.page GMT Primer over Primer
I assume you don't have an airbrush? Black primer + white spray from above is a great way to highlight minis. You could do this with a white primer can still if you don't have an airbrush I guess, but you'll have less control.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291599.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291599.page GMT Primer over Primer http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291606.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291606.page GMT Primer over Primer
I would just drop them in Purple Power the primer will come off easily since its just 1 coat and shouldnt take much work. I say this because you will probably end up overspraying the miniatures if you do double coats of primer.

Try it on one boy. If it turns out good do the rest. If not, strip it along with all the rest. My experience with white primer is that it really varies from brand to brand. Temperature and humidity have a big impact too. I have made it standard practice to always do a small test before spraying an entire unit. That being said I have successfully re-primed a unit before. Light coats are the best.


Just a light coat of white over the black?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291627.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291627.page GMT Primer over Primer

The only time I have ever lost detail due to primer is if I spray the whole model all at once. Even if I am re-Priming. But again I recommend trying it on one of your Boyz. You could also try stripping one of your boyz at the same time. If stripping goes well then you can go that route..]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291679.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291679.page GMT Primer over Primer http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291694.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6291694.page GMT Primer over Primer http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6292185.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6292185.page GMT Primer over Primer ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6292273.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6292273.page GMT Primer over Primer
Yeah, definitely try re-spraying one first and see if it looks fine detail wise. If so, go ahead and do the rest.

I have to insert the general "look into getting an airbrush" comment. If you're in the hobby for the long haul it'll save you money (airbrush primer so much cheaper than the GW primer cans I assume you use), give you thinner basecoats for better details, better control and open up a much wider variety of options for you. Not to mention being a lot of fun to use ; ) You can get a decent setup for ~$150, then later on pick up a better airbrush for another ~$60-$100 once you're comfortable and sure you want to continue on.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6293131.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6293131.page GMT Primer over Primer lol. all i do for the armor is wash and edge it)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6293201.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6293201.page GMT Primer over Primer OSL white, then pin wash. Both good techniques to have available. I still haven't mastered... or even really have a basic grasp of dry brushing.

The airbrush I've given a lot of thought too... sounding like a better option everyday.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6294567.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6294567.page GMT Primer over Primer http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6297269.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6297269.page GMT Primer over Primer http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6298556.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6298556.page GMT Primer over Primer http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6298631.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6298631.page GMT Primer over Primer http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6298787.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6298787.page GMT Primer over Primer

If you used superglue that could be a problem with some strippers, you'd have to reglue it. I don't think this is a problem with dettol. It also won't come apart if you used plastic glue which I use wherever possible.


Thanks, I used plastic glue, but its one of the originals, I guess the metal parts will fall off, like the multimelta, assault cannons, and hurricane bolters.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6298845.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/565420/6298845.page GMT
