The Colour Forge Spray Primer Collection – 500ml Miniature Primers Curated by Wendy’s Miniatures

The Colour Forge spray primer range offers high-performance 500ml miniature primers for painters who want reliable, paint-ready results without compromise. At Wendy’s Miniatures, we curate this range specifically for hobbyists who care about clean detail, consistent colour and a smooth painting experience – not just raw coverage or generic specs.

If you're looking to buy The Colour Forge primers in the Netherlands, Belgium or across the EU, this collection brings together every Colour Forge primer option in one trusted, expertly curated hub. Each primer here is selected because it performs at the hobby desk, not just on a product sheet.

Every The Colour Forge primer is built for miniature painting, not generic DIY use. The finely balanced formula delivers strong adhesion, a smooth matt finish and even coverage on plastic, resin, metal and 3D-printed models. You’ll especially notice the difference on fine details such as facial features, chainmail, insignia and sharp armor edges, where cheaper or overly glossy primers tend to soften definition.

Why choose The Colour Forge spray primers?

• 32 color options with smart color-matching – The Colour Forge primer range includes 32 carefully selected spray colors designed to closely match the most common miniature paint tones used by hobbyists, helping you reduce basecoating time and achieve consistent army schemes.

• 500ml spray primer cans – significantly more coverage than many standard 400ml hobby primers, ideal for batch painting and full armies.

• Smooth matt finish – optimized surface texture for miniature acrylic paints, contrast paints and detailed brushwork.

• Extensive Colour Forge primer range – from essential black, white and grey to color-matched and metallic spray primers.

• Paint-friendly tones – designed to pair naturally with popular miniature paint systems.

• Developed by hobbyists – every spray primer is created with real tabletop workflows in mind.

If you're used to fighting inconsistent sprays or overly glossy surfaces, this range provides a predictable, paint-ready base that supports your technique instead of resisting it.

How The Colour Forge spray primer compares to 400ml glossy primers (such as Games Workshop)

Feature	The Colour Forge – 500ml Matt Spray Primer	400ml Glossy Primers (e.g. GW)
Volume & coverage	500ml spray primer – primes more models per can, ideal for large armies and scenery.	400ml – lower volume, more frequent replacement needed.
Surface finish	Matt to satin-matt primer finish, optimized for acrylic paint adhesion.	Gloss finish can feel slick and less paint-friendly.
Paint control	Better grip for shading, highlighting, weathering and contrast techniques.	Paint may slide or behave inconsistently on gloss surfaces.
Value per ml	More economical over long-term hobby use.	Typically, higher price per ml.
Forgiveness	Beginner-friendly and versatile miniature spray primer.	Gloss finish can highlight surface imperfections.

In practical terms, The Colour Forge spray primer range delivers more control, more coverage and a more paint-ready surface than most 400ml glossy alternatives. While glossy primers can serve niche visual purposes, miniature painters seeking clean, dependable results will benefit more from a high-quality matt spray primer.

Choosing the right Colour Forge primer for your project

Selecting the right miniature spray primer color can significantly speed up your painting workflow:

• Matt Black & dark primers – ideal for grimdark armies, heavy shading and metallic schemes.

• Matt White & light primers – perfect for vibrant palettes, contrast paints and high-saturation schemes.

• Mid-grey primers – versatile all-round Colour Forge primers when flexibility is needed.

• Colored spray primers – match your primer to your dominant armor or cloth tone to reduce basecoating time.

• Metallic spray primers – excellent starting point for armor, weapons and vehicle-heavy projects.

Each Colour Forge primer product page on Wendy’s Miniatures clearly displays its color and finish, helping you choose with confidence and avoid wasted time or repainting.

Suitable for plastic, resin, metal & 3D printed miniatures

The Colour Forge miniature spray primer range performs reliably across all standard hobby materials:

• Hard plastic kits

• Resin miniatures and upgrades

• Metal models

• 3D printed filament and resin parts

For 3D prints, clean the model with mild soapy water, lightly scrub and let it fully dry before applying primer. This improves adhesion and reduces visible print lines, giving you a cleaner finish before the first paint stroke.

How to achieve a smooth finish with Colour Forge spray primer (NL & BE conditions)

For best results when using miniature spray primer in the Netherlands and Belgium:

1. Keep the spray primer can at room temperature; gently warm if stored cold.

2. Shake for a minimum of 2 minutes until fully mixed.

3. Spray from 20–30 cm in light, controlled passes.

4. Avoid spraying during high humidity or rain.

5. Allow full curing time before painting.

A grainy finish usually indicates cold conditions or spraying from too far away. Adjust distance and temperature for optimal primer performance.

Compatible with all major miniature paint ranges (without fighting your brush)

Once cured, The Colour Forge spray primer works seamlessly with most water-based miniature paints, including:

• Layer and base paints

• Contrast and speed paints

• Washes, inks and metallics

The matt primer surface supports clean paint flow and controlled layering, making techniques like glazing, edge highlighting and weathering noticeably easier.

FAQ – Colour Forge spray primer

Is The Colour Forge spray primer better than Citadel / GW spray primer?

Which Colour Forge primer should I buy for Space Marines, fantasy armies or large batch projects?
Black primers suit darker schemes and metallic-heavy armies, white primers support vibrant color and contrast paint styles, while mid-grey offers flexibility when experimenting or painting mixed units. Colored primers are ideal when speed and consistency across large forces matter most.

How many models can one 500ml spray primer can realistically cover?
This depends on spraying style and model size, but most hobbyists comfortably cover several full armies or extensive scenery projects with one can.
