Is that a wool head your using? seeing as car model making these days uses the same paint as a real car, Wool is used as the 1st stage In paint correction so it cuts not polishes so would introduce light scratches. you need the small sponge heads shown elsewhere in this thread.

To be honest i tried the primers and did not like them at all, the paint range seems fine to me no issues like other people have reported. I switched completely to Mr Hobby's Mr Finisher 1500 thinned with Mr Levelling thinner, which I mix around 50/50 with a 0.3 or 0.5 airbrush. I always sand the bodies with 1000 grit sandpaper first, followed by a wash with dish soap and leaving overnight to dry. Then, I give them a quick once-over with some thinners to remove any grease or fingerprints. Spray booth wetted with some paper towel on the bottom also damped to catch any dust even a little water misted over the surrounding areas including myself, I normally lay 3-4 layers of undercoat (base coat?) and leave for 24 hours to cure, Mr Surfacer is super smooth and barely needs any sanding if i do i use very fine grade sanding sheets somewhere between 2000-3000 grit. TBH on a break from building at the moment due to personal issues, when i return and get back to my youtube channel i will be trying some other primers from the likes of Ultimate modelling products, Pro Acryl. Ammo one shot etc etc.
