FAQs
How long should I shake the can?
You should shake the can thoroughly for at least 5 minutes before your first spray.
What is the recommended distance for spraying?
Maintain a distance of 12 inches from the model to ensure an even, smooth application.
Is this primer safe for all miniature materials?
It is designed for standard miniatures made of plastic, resin, and metal.
Why is it important to use at room temperature?
Cold paint can lead to inconsistent flow, sputtering, and a poor finish on your miniatures.
Does this finish require a top coat?
While the primer provides a durable bond, you can use a varnish over your finished painting project for extra protection.
Troubleshooting
The finish looks grainy or textured.
This is usually caused by spraying from too far away or high ambient temperatures. Bring the can closer or wait for cooler, lower-humidity conditions.
The spray nozzle is clogging.
Clear the nozzle by holding the can upside down and spraying until clear, or soak the nozzle in an appropriate solvent if it is heavily dried.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results with Colour Forge Spray Primer, follow these essential steps:
- Preparation: Shake the can vigorously for at least 5 minutes to ensure the pigments and propellants are fully mixed.
- Temperature Control: Ensure the paint can is at room temperature. Cold paint can sputter and lead to a grainy texture.
- Application: Apply in a well-ventilated area using short, sweeping motions from a distance of 12 inches.
- Care: After use, turn the can upside down and spray for a few seconds to clear the nozzle. This prevents clogging for future use. Store the can in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
