Pre-thinned grey primer for direct airbrush use, with high adhesion, fast drying, good filling properties and easy sanding. Before applying, shake the can well for approximately 2 minutes to ensure the contents are fully mixed before use. Ensure that the surfaces to be coated are dry and free from all traces of contaminants. It is recommended to apply 2 or 3 coats, leaving 5 minutes between each.
