• I like to use lots of different paints: Krylon, Rustoleum, Valspar, testors and Tamiya, but can't find a primer that works with all of them. Is there one?? *NM*
  • Dupli-Color Primer has been good for me under many of the brands you ref. *NM*
    • How soon after primer can you paint? *NM*
      • I use it, and usually wait a day or two to paint. But that's just me. *NM*
  • I have used this one on plastic, vinyl, resin and 3d printed models. Never had an issue. Best thing is - . *PIC*
  • I like the Duplicolor primers. They are available in 4 colors (black, white, gray, and red oxide). It's nice to have multiple colors of primer if you are doing much bodywork. *NM*
  • Dupli-color #1699.......I run it through the dehydrator and spray color in 2 hours...... *NM*
    • I have trouble with some paints crazing that stuff, but perhaps I spray color two soon. I will try the dehydrator. *NM*
      • So many variables in paint. Temp of air, temp of paint, humidity etc etc
        • Always test, there really are no universals in the hobby - outside of highly toxic 1:1 formulas
