Troubleshooting
Primer is too thick or grainy.
Ensure the can is shaken thoroughly before use. Apply in multiple thin coats instead of one thick coat. Check the environment, and avoid applying in high humidity or cold temperatures.
Uneven coverage.
Ensure you are spraying in smooth, even strokes, keeping the nozzle the correct distance from the miniature. Multiple thin coats are better than one thick coat.
Clogging of the nozzle.
Invert the can and spray until only propellant comes out after each use.
