I've also recently taken to using the matt black dulux sprays for base coating (have bought a white too, but yet to be put to the test) Works well on metal and plastic, and the solvent has not dissolved anything as my experience was in the 80s and 90s. Painted up some Preiser Brit tank riders last night without any trouble. Take Vajello and GW paints with no problem. Less than a third the price ($9.99) of dedicated modeling sprays (Citadel/Army painter, etc - all v.v. expensive in NZ) $30+ per tin, and Tamiya's stubby little tins at $15-18 each.Herman van Kradenburghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02436600778513944817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152572458899289416.post-28021858403053507092014-03-27T23:18:30.452+00:002014-03-27T23:18:30.452+00:00Hah!

It has a fantastic range of colours. I use it on horses mainly. You still have to prime properly but then you just use it as normal and 'thin' as necessary. Best of luck to you.
