The Army Painter, Colour Primer Matt Black, 400 ml Acrylic Undercoat Spray Paint for Miniature Painting Color Primer for Wargames, DnD & Warhammer

To my mind this is the best primer for the money for miniatures. I've tried Citadel and Humbrol and this wins on both quality and value. It dries quickly and the coverage is even and I've had no problem with the texture. I use this with Vallejo paints and its great.

I like the army painter stuff and this is not exception. Works well covers great.

This does the same job as the more expensive branded primers plus you get much more in a can; and you’re not compromising on the quality of the paint either. The primer itself is easy to apply, but just ensure you shake it well otherwise it’ll come out thickly and ruin the surface. It doesn’t dry quick nor slow, around a couple of hours would be fine. Just don’t leave it outside to dry or the surface will crack and turn blue!

Perfect black primer for ur miniatures

Good coverage and finish. Recommend you wear a mask or spray outside as smell is strong. Will buy again.

Great paint i used it to paint my pig

We ordered this to base coat a large Orc Mech figure our 11 year old was given for his birthday. It sprayed beautifully, covered well and had very little run off. A lovely deep matt black colour and coverage, enabling detailed painting over the top and accenting. Plemty left in the can after doing 2 coats on the large figure so he will be able to do plenty more figures from the same can.

Bought as Matt black, primed a bunch of minis only for it to dry with a very gloss finish, very different to previous uses with the same product and unusable for my painting purposes - I've now got a rubbish job trying to strip it off an expensive batch of minis. Had clearly been mislabeled by army painter, not Amazon's fault, but I won't be using this brand again
