[GZG] [Painting] primer

Anyone (in the US) have suggestions for a good spray-on
primer? The last stuff I used (and I don't recall what it was, unfortunately)
was too slick.

Primer works wonderfully. If you can't find that most of the other brands of
sandable primer also work well.

I am talking Lowes or Home Depot.

FYI: I'm a bit of a primer fanatic. This is better than anything you can get
in a hobby store. The jury is still out on wether it is better than the
airbrush primer I've tried.

I like Krylon. Home Depot quit carrying it, and the craft store started just
carrying gray. Krylon has gray, black, white, and brown primer. (I think brown
would make a good start for lots of things.)

WalMart carries Krylon, if you can bring yourself to go in there. I saw gray
and brown at one recently. I need some black, but haven't seen it. A local
small hardware store has supplied the white I've needed.

I've seen all four Krylon colors of primer in Wally World.

My experiences with Krylon have been mixed. :-(   I like it when it
works ( i.e., comes out of the can and goes where I want it to), but there
have been
more than a few times when the nozzle clogs, comes off, leaks, etc. :-(

I haven't caught up with the thread yet, but my favorites in order are:

PollyS/Floquil primer.
(gak) Games Workshop primer. Krylon Flat white or black paint.

I like testor's primer white, or testor's flat black.

I've also liked painting over Plasti-cote flat white.

sure to get the _Sandable_ primer.  It makes a big
difference.

I've used the black primer by "Armory" lots, and had fine success with it.

If you choose to spend the big $$, the black primer by GW is good - very

black, great coverage. Waayyy too expensive though.

My understanding was that Armory primer is actually re-labeled Krylon.
Same paint, same manufacturer, different label.
