I don't have too much knowledge on the differences between primer used for models vs say, a car. (If there are any significant differences?)

For those here who repair models / build resin kits etc, do you have a primer that you can recommend?

Thank you in advance!
Tamiya Primer or Mr.Surfer by Gunze. You can get these primers from any hobby store in Vancouver. Magic Box, Burnaby Hobbies, Imperial Hobbies, and there is one in Crystal mall on the second floor.

Stay away from automotive primers. They are usually thick and maybe too hot for plastics.

I personally like Tamiya Primer alot.

Thanks
