Try it? If you don't like it, you can use it up on frames, engines, etc. I love Tamiya primer, but I paid $14.50 for the last can I bought. I haven't found any Tamiya paint at any of my local HLs anyway. I bought a can of Testors paiint at HL today with the coupon and it was around 45 cents cheaper than the LHS charges, but the LHS was out of the color I wanted.
