Field Marshal build Recommended Primer and Paint

Recommended Posts

Got the Field Marshal kit and looking to start painting before the BlastFX electronics show up. 

 

However, have zero experience painting Aluminum so is there a recommended primer and paint I should use?  Will be painting parts before assembly, so don't want something that'll be too thick and create issues.

 

Thanks!

I use industrial paints for props which seems to adhere a little better than other paints, you could use an etch primer, or even just give a light sand with some fine wet/dry sandpaper, it will help the paint adhere. I would first give everything a wash, some times you can have grease spots or finger prints which can react with paint.
