Colour Primer Matt White, 400 ml Acrylic Spray Paint

The Army Painter Matt White Colour Primer is a superb choice for preparing miniatures before painting, especially for tabletop games like Warhammer, DnD, and other wargames. The 400ml can provides a smooth, even coat that adheres well to plastic, resin, and metal models, ensuring paint application is consistent and vibrant. The spray dries to a true matte white finish, which is perfect for bright color schemes or as a base for layering and washes. It also helps reduce the number of paint coats needed, saving both time and effort. The nozzle delivers a fine mist with minimal spatter, allowing for clean coverage on even the smallest details of a miniature. Drying time is quick, and the primer is durable enough to stand up to handling during gameplay and painting sessions. As with all spray paints, it’s best used in a well-ventilated area and with smooth, sweeping passes to avoid overcoating. If you want a reliable, high-quality primer that enhances your miniature painting results, this one is highly recommended.

This product is good for sprain model kits before you actually pay them and put the detail on. I would highly recommend the spray it was expensive but well worth every penny. I don’t have an example because the kid I got I didn’t buy from Amazon so I can’t show it good luck.

I’ve used a fair number of spray primers over the years, but The Army Painter Colour Primer in Ultramarine Blue has quickly become a go-to for painting blue-themed miniatures. What makes it stand out is that it serves as both a primer and a basecoat in one, saving time and giving a consistent colour foundation straight out of the can. The matte acrylic finish dries evenly and doesn’t obscure fine details, which is always a concern when spraying models with intricate features. The Ultramarine Blue tone is ideal for Space Marines or other armies that rely on rich, deep blue hues. It matches well with other paints in The Army Painter range, especially their Warpaints line, and works beautifully with their Quickshade Dark Tone for adding depth and contrast. The spray nozzle delivers a smooth application, avoiding the splatter or pooling that sometimes happens with cheaper brands. I find two light coats are usually enough to get solid, even coverage without hiding detail. Drying time is a touch longer than some other primers I’ve used, but the trade-off is a stronger finish and vibrant colour. Some painters may find it a little less saturated than Citadel’s Macragge Blue, but for my purposes, the balance between tone and texture is spot-on. If you’re painting a large batch of miniatures and want to streamline your workflow, this primer does a great job of setting the stage for detailed brushwork. Overall, it’s an excellent product that’s earned a permanent place on my hobby shelf.

Edit: Replacement can arrived so quickly and it works perfectly. Thank you Army Painter (and thank you Amazon - for the incredibly quick delivery). Actual Product Review: The finish from this paint is beautifully smooth and clean and I have found it to be durable. Application is easy and you get excellent coverage. I have used Army Painter spray paint on a whole swarm of models now and none of them have had any problems with chipping or peeling from handling, tabletop use or transport. Aside from the defective can, which appears to have been just 'one of those things' as opposed to any indication of brand quality, I been very pleased with Army Painter spray paint and recommend it. Note: Do watch or read the tutorials as it is slightly different to your typical spray paint - particularly if you regularly use other brands of spray paint (you have to be closer to the model than you would usually be) and do perform the cleaning at the end of spraying to maintain longevity of your can. Original review: The can I received just a few hours ago was defective. No pressure. Paint just dribbling out. Totally unusable. The first tin of Army Painter Spray I bought was great. Still going strong and I was really happy with it. This is the second I have bought, and it doesn't work at all. I will be happy to improve this review if the returns policy works effectively and the next can works as intended. 'Army Painter' was recommended to me as a reliable brand so I am hoping this was just a bad tin and I got unlucky. Third times the charm!

Really impressive primer. The finish is a deep, matt black and only needs one coat, which saves a lot of time when you’re priming an entire army. The can size is large and easily covered a full Warhammer Spearhead without running out.

I picked this up to prime my Blood Bowl miniatures, and let me tell you - it’s the quiet workhorse behind every great paint job. One smooth spray and my figures were ready for battle, paint, and whatever chaos the pitch throws at them. It’s like giving your minis a spa day before they get covered in tactical bruises and questionable team colours. The coverage is even, the grip is solid, and it dries faster than a halfling running from a troll. No clogging, no weird texture, no drama - just a clean, reliable base that makes painting a joy instead of a chore. I’ve used it on Orcs, Elves, and even that one Goblin who insists on moonwalking into the end zone. Every time, it holds up beautifully. If you want your minis to survive the painting process with dignity (and limbs intact), this primer’s your go-to.

Good stuff...great coverage

The primer’s great. My son uses it for his miniatures. He’s learned to shake it first, as he forgot to the second time he used it, and sprayed speckles all over his models instead of a clean spread of primer. I’ve examined his handiwork and he’s managed to get primer in the awkward to reach areas without over-spraying the rest of his figures. However, the spray nozzle had fallen off before his first use. He was warned about taking care and the health hazard of attempting to put the nozzle back on, but chose to do it himself, was careful about the direction it was aiming when doing so and made a clean job of it. Then the nozzle fell off again — exploded, as he describes it. Thankfully, he only uses it outside as per my instruction, because it made a lot of mess. Please fit the nozzle to be more secure, as this isn’t safe.

El spray ha llegado como está en la fotografía, la tapa rota y la boquilla partida

Stavo cercando un buon prodotto per rifinire i modelli che stampo in 3D e coloro e sono incappato in questo. Il prezzo non e' proprio economico ma neanche oltre la media dei prodotti decenti. E devo dire che questo non e' decente, ma e' superbo. Con letteralmente due leggerissime passate a distanza di 15 minuti l'un l'altra il modello e' venuto benissimo senza alcuna sbavatura. E ne ho usato davvero poco. Mi serviva come finitura per un busto appena dipinto (come primo oggetto su cui testarlo) per dargli un po' di protezione contro i vari agenti atmosferici quali umidita' e freddo, o il molto caldo d'estate (anche se ovviamente lo tengo dentro casa) Il risultato ripeto e' perfetto. Al tatto e' leggermente ruvido ma si sente che c'e' uno strato a protezione dei colori e da anche quell'effetto satinato che mi piace un sacco. Per tutti quelli che stampano 3D e cercano una finitura superba con 2 spruzzate senza spendere un patrimonio... Beh, siete nella giusta pagina.

The Army Painter is one of the best tools for amateur painter-gamers.

I bought The Army Painter Color Primer in White to prep a black metal piece, and the results are fantastic. The coverage is impressive—it managed to mask the original black surface perfectly. What I loved most was how quickly it dried; it was touch-dry in just a few minutes, which really sped up my project. The finish is smooth and creates the perfect base for the final coat of paint. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a professional-grade primer

Is zeer goede en dekkende verf. Tevens is het een zeer gunstige prijs voor deze kwaliteit
