Yeah, sorry. I'm still a bit new here & I wanted to hear the latest. I may be a bit painful at times but I'm still loveable.

You so are.

Back in the day, a very, very long time ago, I found that washing soft plastic figures in neat bleach did sort of etch the surface and help paint adhere.

Of course you are sweetie. I was aiming for playfulness rather than sarcasm.

Besides, since Dullcote has disappeared I’m still looking for ‘the one’.

Mr Melon-Headed Moggy - I have a small (unused) can that I will bring to Ayton if you want it.

I've not actually tried drinking the stuff, but I believe that that is what happens when you do.

OK the Vallejo is unobtainable.
Any idea if this would work (on soft plastic figures)?

Matisse Low Viscosity Gessos
Matisse Low Viscosity Gesso is specially formulated for artists who prefer a creamier, lower viscosity primer application. With a bright white, low tooth, flat finish, Matisse Low Viscosity Gesso is easy to apply with a brush or knife.

Otherwise I may be forced to go to a Games Workshop store & against a life long hatred*, buy a spray pack of their white primer

* nothing against GW. I don't like spray primers.
