Review on πŸ–ŒοΈ Badger Air-Brush Co. SNR-403 Stynylrez, 4oz (1-Pack), Black by Lori Aguirre

Revainrating 1 out of 5

WARNING, this thing can ruin the model!

If I could give zero stars I would. So I turned my attention back to Stynylrez when I hit 40km for the first time. I liked it because I could apply it with a brush (I didn't have an airbrush at the time). So after buying an airbrush I grabbed this thing and it worked great, as did the first bottle. But the second bottle is an absolute nightmare. It constantly clogged my brush, even with flame retardant. I often shoot my minis using 91% ISO. I've done this a thousand times with different primers, even with Stynylrez when I first used it, no problem. However, on the second bottle, the primer literally stuck together and wouldn't come loose. It looks like enamel. Now it would be even worse if I could just rinse the Mini and paint it clean. But you can't. The primer forms little lumps as it wears off and nothing more than cracking the mini will rip it off. I had hundreds of dollars worth of miniatures in rubbing alcohol for over a year before it came off even a little with a very hard cleaning. I checked the bottle and found nowhere that it chemically reacts with alcohol. I thought maybe it was shiny because the bottle had a white cap so I switched to a black cap a few months ago and the same thing happened. So I'm completely confused.
