CPTCommo13 Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 Where is the best place to get the Gray and Dark Brown primers for the helmet, hard parts? I found gray on Amazon but haven’t seen Dark Brown Primer spray paint. I check Home Depot, Hobby Lobby too but no luck. Any suggestions? Quote
KOtrooper Posted August 19, 2019 Posted August 19, 2019 I used Dark Walnut Rust-Oleum spray paint at Home Depot. If your local store doesn't have it you should be able to order it and pick up at the store. 1 Quote

KOtrooper Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 Oh make sure you let the brown primer have time to set/degas.You're going from enamel to acrylic paint and you can get a bad reaction if the enamel isn't fully set.On hot summer days this took a day (let dry overnight). If the weather is more humid you might have to wait longer.Sent from my Moto G (5S) Plus using Tapatalk Quote
