Painting Tips

To paint metal miniatures, first prime with Zinssar Bullseye 1-2-3 Primer, made specially for metal, glass and plastic. (available at home improvement centers, paint stores and hardware stores) After the metal miniatures are primed, you can paint with any craft paint, and then either paint or spray with a sealer like polyurethane or other clear acrylic sealer.
