Vallejo Surface Primer 73606 Ger. Green Brown (60ml)

Vallejo Surface Primer 73606 German Green Brown (60 ml) is a primer from the Vallejo Surface Primer line in the shade German Green Brown. The primer creates a thin, well-adhering layer that prepares the surface for subsequent painting while preserving fine model details.

You can use the German Green Brown colored primer not only as a primer but also as the first color layer. It saves time on camouflage, vehicles, figures, gaming miniatures, and larger areas where you want to quickly unify the base.

Shake the bottle thoroughly before use. The model should be clean, dry, and degreased. Apply the primer in multiple thin layers rather than one thick layer. When using an airbrush, start with low pressure and adjust the distance, pressure, and thinning as needed. Allow the surface to dry well between coats.
