Review: Great Primer with Excellent Quality - This stuff really is great. It sprays smoothly and gives solid coverage with excellent adhesion to 3D prints and miniatures. The quality is obvious from the first use. The finish is listed as matte but I would describe it as a very subtle satin instead. It dries to the touch quickly but giving it about 24 hours to fully cure makes a big difference. Once cured it becomes rock hard and extremely durable. I ended up returning it only because I wanted a completely matte finish but it might work out perfectly for you. Ps. In the picture of the left is with the primer and the right is without. I 3D printed this part with PETG filament.
Review: Best primer ever - Vallejo Black Mecha Primer is hands down the best black primer I have used. It is nice and thin, goes on smoothly they an airbrush and can be mixed with thinner for a great consistent application. It’s thin enough to where you can even brush it in and not lose definition in a model. It is a great Vallejo black and will give you great shadows w out having to use a black paint if needed. Best primer ever

## Features

- The primer is the first layer of colour that is applied on the model in order to prepare the surface for the subsequent painting processes. In order to guarantee an excellent adherence it is necessary to apply it on a previously ‘degreased’ surface, therefore it is advisable to wash the model or the figure before priming it in order to remove the remains of release agents.
- Vallejo Primers is a range of acrylic primers specially formulated for airbrushing. Recommended compressor settings for our colours are around 15 - 20 PSI or 0.5 to 1 kg.
- The primers are applied in successive coats and dry quickly, forming a homogeneous film of extraordinary hardness and resistance within a few hours after application. They can be used directly or diluted with our Airbrush Thinner (B002X6DTHK) or Flow Improver (B00QD780G0).
- The matt black primer is available in 18 ml (0.6 fl. oz.) bottles with dropper, and 60 ml (2.02 fl. oz.) and 200 ml (6.76 fl. oz.) bottles with hinged cap and dropper.
- Note: The brand Vallejo is currently in the process of rebranding, therefore, for a period of time, it is possible that you may receive the product with either the new packaging or the old packaging.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use this to darken facial hair?**
A: I mean you could but why on earth would you not just use a hair dye? This is paint...

**Q: Does this need to be thinned to use in an airbrush?**
A: It's thin enough to use straight from the bottle. It could be thinned a bit if you want really thin layers but it isn't necessary.

**Q: Can I sand or wet sand this product? Thank you!!!**
A: Yes... With caveats. If you are using it on wood, mdf or a similarly porous surface, you can. For use on models, miniature and the like, it's going to be more likely that instead of smoothing the surface, you'll just take off all of the primer. Vallejo primer isn't self etching, so adhesion, especially on metal, isn't nearly as good as you would find from rattle can spray paint, leaving you sad if you try and sand. Aces on wood though.

**Q: How long does this product that is airbrushed on need to dry before top coating? Thank you!!**
A: If you put it on thick it will take at most 2-3 minutes to dry. Also as an FYI this is best used with thinner before using it in an airbrush
