De-greasers?

[Adrian "Marvel" Reynolds]

Hi Kev, glad it helps....

Hi Ade, I always thought it was a benefit of using cellulose primer...the finger grease ends up as part of the paint layer Water based primers don5 usually like it though....I’ve had one spray session simply bead up on the surface and refuse to cover....and another where it dried with uncovered fingerprints.....now I always wash down the model, and usually use Tamiya cellulose rather than acrylic primer....

I only use Halfords Primers be they black, grey or white, I used to use Tamiya primers but for their cost you get three times as much in the Halfords ones.

I found not eating chocolate while building helps....
On a more serious note. I always give the hands a good wash and scrub befor hitting the plastic.
I do have a box of latex gloves at the ready for when I start to paint. Heck sometimes I even remember to put one on!
