Okay, so I assume I can purchase the Rustoleum brand primer from Home Depot or Lowes? How long does it take for it to dry because the GW primers dry rather...
Rustoleum and Krylon are awesome! Plus half the price, if not less, than the crap GW puts out. I can't tell you how many times I've had a jacked up paint can...
Or better, Wal-Mart and K-Mart. Make sure you "dust" the model, not go for complete coverage. I have a few boxes I spray on. I put my models on them and...
