Tools & Supplies: Primer
One of the goods that is used up a lot during the buildup of a prop: primer. It is not only used to prepare a surface for the paint but it also very helpful in finding imperfections and blemishes after the sanding process. Small scratches or defects are revealed this way. This is also why the consumption of primer is so high: The alternating process of priming and sanding requires lots of primer.
Most brands provide decent products. Not only Motip, but also Duplicolor or No-Name-Products can be used. In any case, remember to do a test run! Primer is available in several colors – I prefer gray.
