Spray Primer Paint Army Painter Colour Primer Greenskin for Miniatures and Models

Army Painter Colour Primer Greenskin is a spray primer formulated for miniatures, models and tabletop figures. The aerosol provides an even green base coat that improves paint adhesion and reduces the number of subsequent paint layers needed. Suitable for plastic, metal and resin, this primer creates a uniform surface for acrylic paints and simplifies preparation for painting and weathering techniques.

Advantages

The spray primer delivers fast, consistent coverage in a single colour that evens out small surface imperfections and texture differences. Its formulation promotes strong adhesion of acrylic paints, helping to prevent chipping and flaking during handling. The aerosol format allows for quick application across complex shapes and recessed areas, reducing time spent on basecoating and improving overall workflow for hobbyists and model painters.

Suitable for

• Plastic miniatures and scale model kits
• Metal figures and pewter models
• Resin casts and garage kits
• Wargaming miniatures and tabletop figures

Key specifications

• Colour: Greenskin green base
• Formulation: Spray aerosol primer suitable for acrylic topcoats
• Compatible substrates: plastic, metal, resin
• Finish: matte basecoat to enhance paint layering and shading
• Application: aerosol spray for even coverage on complex shapes

How to use

Shake the can vigorously before use and test spray on a scrap surface. Ensure miniatures are clean and free of dust, oils or release agents; wash and dry plastic or resin models if necessary. Hold the can 15–25 cm from the surface and apply several thin, even coats rather than a single heavy coat to avoid obscuring details. Allow adequate drying time between coats, then proceed with acrylic paints and desired finishing techniques.

Usage recommendations

Use in a well-ventilated area or outdoors and protect surrounding surfaces from overspray. Store the aerosol at recommended temperatures and keep out of reach of children. For best results with shading or zenithal highlighting, consider pairing this greenskin base with subsequent light or dark primers before applying colour layers.
