Scud's video: Paint : Modo MK-11 Surfacer Gray Primer Airbrush Experiment

Have always heard of priming a kit would make paint sticks better and to reveal poor surfaces. I must say, since this is also the first time using a primer, it does all the stuff they said. I used a scratched / damaged spoon to test out how the primer works. Trying to get whether will it fill and / or reveal the scratches. To be honest it didn't fill anything just like a normal paint job and is prominently showing all the cuts. But using it is not always necessary. If you're very keen on getting the perfect surface on every piece of your kit, then yes, you might want to prime them. In my case I only wanted the piece to turn into the color that I want. So if a piece is in dark color (i.e : black, red, grey) and I wanted to turn it into bright color (i.e : white, yellow) - priming the piece would be better to first of all covering the dark color and make your bright color paint sticks better.
