Mr.Hobby GSI-B504 Metal Primer Spray - Basecoat for Metal Parts

For model makers tackling metal-bodied RC components, a consistent base is essential. The Mr.Hobby GSI-B504 Metal Primer Spray helps paints adhere to metal, giving a smoother and longer lasting finish.

Why Choose a Metal Primer

A dedicated metal primer improves topcoat performance by creating a keyed surface, lowering the chance of peeling and helping delicate details keep their definition after painting.

How to Apply for Best Results

  • Clean the metal thoroughly and remove any grease or fingerprints before priming.
  • Warm the can and shake well to mix the primer evenly.
  • Use several thin coats rather than one heavy pass, letting each coat flash off before the next.

Workshop Uses

This primer is great for customising metal bumpers, supports, and alloy accessories on scale RC models. It helps achieve an even topcoat on parts with tight contours and rivets.

If the old paint is well bonded, light scuffing and cleaning followed by this primer can work. If the old finish is failing, strip it back first for best results.
Applied in thin coats the primer preserves fine details. Avoid heavy builds that could obscure recessed areas.
Most hobby lacquers and acrylics adhere well once the primer is dry. Always test compatibility on a scrap piece if unsure.
