I just wanted to gage the different primers used to see if I could test some or if I find one that I did not know about.

MEDIUMS:

Plastic
Vacum material
Metal
Clay
Paper
Epoxy

and any others not listed.

Tamiya lacquer based gray primer is my choice for literally all modeling media. Works great with plastic, epoxy, CA glue, paper/cardboard, and framing on vacuum form canopies.

I've never had any issues with it other then the smell. I shoot it in a homemade paint booth that fits into the window in my modeling/computer room. It's the only time I use it.

agree.
Tamiya Fine Surface Primer(L) is all I ever use, and on anything.

edit to add, an exhaust fan, and a powerful one at that, is a blessing. I quote "contains dimethyl ether butyl acetate"
- one has only so many brain cells to give for ones art....
