3-D Formula CLEAR PRIMER 1-oz Bottle (Airbrush-ready) - Tru-Color Paint

The 3-D Formula CLEAR PRIMER is a solvent-based acrylic primer designed specifically for superior adhesion on resin and metal surfaces, perfect for airbrush applications. This premium primer enhances the paint adhesion of Tru-Color paints on resin-made models, providing an ideal base coat.

• Volume: 1 ounce
• Ready for airbrushing; not suitable for brush painting due to thin consistency
• Solvent-based with pigment thinned using Acetone and other media
• Glossy finish on non-flat colors, suitable for decal application
• Requires ventilation during application and cleanup with inexpensive Acetone

Compared to standard primers, this 3-D Formula CLEAR PRIMER includes additional adhesion media, making it far superior for use with resin models where paint adhesion can be challenging. While many primers focus solely on metal or plastic, this product extends its effectiveness to resin, plastics, and metals alike. Over time, if the primer appears thicker due to media evaporation inside the soft plastic bottle, it can easily be restored using Tru-Color’s “Rejuvenator” or Thinner, maintaining the primer's performance without the need for replacement.

Key Technical Advantages: Technology and Performance

The Tru-Color 3-D Formula CLEAR PRIMER incorporates advanced adhesion technology that boosts paint bonding on tricky surfaces such as resins and metals. Its solvent-based acrylic formula allows it to dry quickly to a durable, glossy finish, creating an excellent surface for applying decals and other detailed paint layers. Airbrush-ready consistency ensures smooth, even coverage without clogging, making it a top choice for professional modelers and hobbyists who demand precision and quality. Additionally, the formula is easy to clean up with Acetone, simplifying maintenance after use while also requiring adequate ventilation to ensure safe application.
