Smooth Shells Before Painting

The Mr.Hobby GSI-B519, marketed as Mr. Surface 1000, is a useful primer for RC enthusiasts who want a uniform base for painting. Its fine finish helps hide tiny blemishes and prepares body shells for crisp topcoats.

Advantages for Model Work

Mr. Surface 1000 adheres well to plastics and resin parts commonly used in RC modelling. The fine formulation fills small scratches and creates a uniform surface that makes paint lay down more consistently.

Practical Spray Tips

Always spray in a well ventilated space and shake the can vigorously before use. Keep a 20-30 cm distance and apply multiple light layers to avoid runs. After drying you can lightly sand to smooth the base before final paint.

Is Mr. Surface 1000 suitable for ABS and polycarbonate bodies?

It works well on ABS and many plastics; however, polycarbonate can be more challenging. Test on a scrap piece first and use light scuffing if adhesion is poor.

Can I sand primer between coats?

Yes. Light sanding between coats with high grit paper helps level the surface. Make sure each layer is dry before you sand to avoid lifting the primer.

How many light coats are recommended?

Apply two to three light passes, allowing brief flash times between sprays. This builds a uniform layer without sagging or runs.

How should leftover cans be stored?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight and keep the nozzle clear by inverting the can and spraying briefly after use.
