It provides a smooth, matt white basecoat that enhances color vibrancy and preserves fine details on plastic, resin, and metal models. Ideal for gamers and hobbyists seeking efficient, high-quality priming to accelerate their painting workflow. ## Description Product Description Colour Primers Our Colour Primer spray is the perfect time-saving product that allows you to prime and give a base colour to your model simultaneously, saving you a lot of time. Our unique formula is specially designed to be used for miniature painting and can be used on metal and plastic as well as resin. The superb pigment quality makes the Colour Primers easily cover the first time. The colours are matt and dry quickly, making your freshly sprayed miniatures or models ready for painting almost right away. Shake Our Colour Primers are richly pigmented with superb, heavy pigments. This means that it is especially important to give our sprays a thorough shake prior to use. Make sure to shake the can for a full minute in a clockwise/counterclockwise semicircular motion. This motion is important to preserve the glass agitators contained in the can. Give the can a quick ex­tra shake now and again during use. Distance Be mindful of your distance when spraying your models. Colour Primers must be used at a distance of 15-20 cm, whereas varnishes must be used at a distance of at least 30cm. It is a good idea to line up your models, meaning you have more control of your spray distance! Randomly placed models might result in some models being sprayed too close while others from too far. Motion While spraying, make sure you move the can from side to side in a flowing motion. Start spraying to the side of the model, and move the spray across the model, ending the spray burst when you’ve passed the model. This wat you avoid overspraying your models in the highly pigmented Colour Primer. Don’t spray with short bursts but try to use even sweeps with the spray. Always make sure to do a test on an old model or sprue first. Clean Since Colour Prim­ers are a combination of tra­ditional primer and highly pigmented quality acrylic paint the spray is very different to use than other primers. Amongst this, it is sensitive to block­ing because of the thick paint jam­ming the nozzle. It is very important to clean the nozzle after each ended spray session, hold­ing the can upside down and spraying until only gas comes out.

Also available: Speedpaint Review: Excellent Primer for Miniature Painting - 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.

Primer is acrylic based so can use paints over it. **Q: How many 28mm miniatures can I prime with one tin?** A: A fair few! **Q: Is it waterproof?** A: I don't know, not having tested it. I've been using it for painting 3D resin printed models. Where not painted with a final acrylic coat, I've always applied a clear plasticoat spray. It's a primer, not a final finish, so best guess would be no. **Q: Can this be used as a base coat for white models?** A: Indeed it can. This is a primer and colour in one spray. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Primer for Miniature Painting *by P***L on 12 October 2025* 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.

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. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality *by A***W on 19 June 2025* 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. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Army Painter Color Primer Spray Paint, Matt White, 400ml, 13.5oz - Acrylic Spray Undercoat for Miniature Painting- Spray Primer for Plastic Miniatures - The Army Painter Base Primer Matt Black, 400 mL Acrylic Spray Primer, Spray Paint Basecoat for Miniature Priming, Tabletop Roleplaying, Boardgames, and Wargames Miniature Modelling - The Army Painter Anti Shine Matt Spray for Miniature Painting - After Quickshade Spray Paint Top Coat Acrylic Varnish - Satin Finish Spray for Acrylic Model Paint, 400ml Can --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/52266867-the-army-painter-colour-primer-matt-white-400-ml-acrylic](https://www.desertcart.com.br/products/52266867-the-army-painter-colour-primer-matt-white-400-ml-acrylic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Brazil* *Store origin: BR* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
