Painfully

It is very easy to overapply Floquil primer. Floquil is very "runny" compared to most common spray primers, and it also has a very long drying time (about 24-48 hours). Both qualities are disadvantages IMO, but the end result can be very good once you become comfortable with using Floquil. Try using a single VERY THIN coat, and then giving it time to completely dry before doing a second coat if needed. Don't trust your eyes immediately after spraying the first coat. The primer, because it is runny, will settle into the recesses of the figure over the first several minutes. I would lay the figure down on a flat surface and spray lightly over it once. Wait 24 hours or until dry. Flip the figure over and repeat. Then examine the figure and determine if it needs a second coat. If you are just trying to catch tiny missed spots, then don't spray it again or you'll overprime the rest of the figure--use brush-on primer to tidy up. If you see any visible runs, or pools, then you oversprayed--adjust how you spray next time to apply a thinner primer coat. As messy and tedious as I probably made it look, it is not terribly difficult once you get used to it. Having said that... ...I prefer to use Tamiya Fine Surface Primer (available in white or light grey only). It does not run, and it dries in less than an hour. It is not cheap, but it is the smoothest primer I've ever used from a can. I highly recommend it as THE BEST PRIMER EVER. :bounce:
