Using black krylon primer
I am attempting to finish up a model and I am thinking of using black krylon primer for the model then basecoat with a light gray (to be determined in the future). Has anyone expereinced any issues with this primer or any success with using black as primer and then something light over it?

I've used black primer many times, but I prefer Duplicolor's black sandable primer. Some people use Krylon primer, but I think as a whole Krylon spray paints are too troublesome to use on models. Black primer with a light color coat is a common method for painting Vipers & X-Wings.

Thanks for the into. Using this yo paint my freighter build for my third attempt. Maybe this time it will work!
