Halfords plastic primer is fine but I've found it doesn't last a long as using an airbrush with for example Vallejo primer, I've been using a little 17ml pot for a while and done quite a bit of priming with it, I find I get a finer and more even coating with an airbrush

Cheers john but i dont have a airbrush at moment but im saving for one. are they hard to work with
The Halfords acrylic primers are good but possibly a bit limited for detail work. The spray is quite heavy and I think on 1/35th or less you could loose detail. I use them a lot but for big stuff such as boat hulls etc. You can get a very good finish though and they are extreemly convenient, what are you thinking of spraying?
Do Tamiya or Humbrol have a primer in thier mini rattle can ranges? Just a thought.

yer im useing Humbrol grey primer at the moment with no fault at all. im doing a tamiya bike 1:12 scale
Tamiya do a very fine primer, it was pointed out to me by Graham, i used it on my Tank Crew Figures, did a fantastic job.
