White - Primer sold by Halford's is recommended as "sticks to anything" - it is particularly good as a base coat for resin kits.

Grey - This primer is excellent as a base coat for brass and white metal kits

Black - generally use Matt Black for chassis and under-frames and Satin Black for bodywork.


TIPS......

Be careful when doing any touching up as Halford’s paints lift most varnishes

Do not spray Cellulose based on top of oil based.

Some people only use gloss as it's easier to apply lining; varnish with matt or satin after.

Please feel free to use the above; accreditation to RAF Kinloss MRC would be appreciated.
