I just primed 5 T72 tanks for Flames of War Team Yankee. The primer is over 5 years old and came out of the can like I bought it yesterday. As for the white being grainy, that is true. True if you spray it less than a foot away from the item being primed. When I prime I mist the area being primed from just over a foot away. No grainy paint. I have used many different primers and Armory has been the best one for me.

The problem most people run into is they hold the can to far away from the model. As Jordan Finney pointed out you got to be close to the model. At a third of the price of Citadel primer for me it is worth it. Sucks that you all had a bad experience with this primer and I truly hope you can salvage the models that were affected.Erikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10345492929038160592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100642048696971643.post-72743604991965356002015-07-26T15:38:09.185-05:002015-07-26T15:38:09.185-05:00I just sprayed a pewter mini with this brand.

Like Jordan said, spraying it as if it were a normal primer leaves it pilly and disgusting, but when I accidentally sprayed it close and continuous it went on... flat, relative to the pilled areas. Even still, this area didn't dry solidly flat, and left behind bumps.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100642048696971643.post-44546271527359288812014-12-05T20:50:12.399-06:002014-12-05T20:50:12.399-06:00I have been using armory primer for years now, thi...I have been using armory primer for years now, this primer is different, in order to use this primer you should go against how to prime, you should be close(4-6 inches) and spray with one continuous stream. your problem comes from the grit(what makes it a primer rather than black paint) drying out before it has the chance to even reach the modelAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152212255009382684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100642048696971643.post-24417357536733810842013-10-31T15:22:11.496-05:002013-10-31T15:22:11.496-05:00Oh wow I just ruined a new box of kroot didn't...Oh wow I just ruined a new box of kroot didn't I?
