Reliable Surface Primer for Model Builders

The Tamiya 87042 Surface Primer in gray and 180ml size helps RC enthusiasts create a uniform base before painting. It evens out minor blemishes and improves topcoat adhesion for a neater finish.

Applications and Material Compatibility

Use this primer on plastic bodies, chassis parts and metal components commonly used in RC models. The grey tone makes it easier to spot surface flaws and simplifies sanding and filling prior to final paintwork. The 180ml capacity gives good mileage for routine projects.

Practical Spray Tips

  • Wipe parts clean and ensure they are fully dry before priming.
  • Shake the can for at least one minute after mixing sounds stop.
  • Maintain a steady distance and apply several light coats instead of one heavy pass.
  • Dry thoroughly between coats to avoid trapping solvents under new layers.

Received all items. Good packaging. Excellent service
Yes, it provides a compatible base for both enamel and acrylic paints, but always check compatibility with a small test piece first.
Start with 400-600 grit to level imperfections, then finish with finer paper if needed before applying colour coats.
Apply thin, even coats at the recommended distance and avoid spraying in very cold or humid conditions to reduce orange peel.
