If you are priming with a white spray, make sure to shake it for much longer at least 1-2 minutes for a smooth coat. When warming it up with water, when you shake it, it should no longer feel cold but cool to warm, and then you're good to go.

I keep my spray cans on a rack inside my home. I spray outdoors, but as they are inside, they never get too cold to begin with

Step 1: Never use Army Painter brand primer. 

Army Painter rattle cans are 90% coarse grit sand, 9% sludge, and 1% pigment. Each can features their patented “Super Clog” applicator. Guaranteed to gum up irreparably every time. You’ll never have to worry about getting a smooth even coat again!

Soooo many people need to see this video.

I primed my mini the other day outside and it was -30C and it turned out just fine.

(I live in northern Canada)

@Manfromthenorth0551

Brushing on liquid primer is also a good alternative when its cold, it takes longer but you dont have to worry about ventilation and the cold

@bigbrowntau

Meanwhile, here in Australia we often have the opposite problem. Spray primer drying before it reaches your model. Still warm the cans up in winter though.

@HoserBS

This is just what I needed, had gotten some new models but chocked it up to I might not be able to paint until it warm up. I’m already fairly limited on time to paint so brush priming wasn’t something I wanted to have to do. Wasn’t entirely certain warming the can like that would work as well as I’d hoped but I now see it works perfectly fine. Thanks for the tip

@davidbigboutay782

This is why it's worth it to get an airbrush. My time spent tripled once I no longer had to wait for warm weather to prime models.

@WantedAgenda404

Thank you for posting this, just got my first few space marines and I’ve been waiting to make them, the day after I bought them the weather decided to drop below 30°F for the rest of the week

@bionic217

Airbrush goes brrrrr

@freddiehill28

Oh my god THIS IS WHY MY PRIMING CAME OUT SHIT

@HashiraOriba

No wonder my primed minis look fuzzy cause of the cold 😭😭😭 thank you so much!!

@thelittlestgiant

You actually shouldn’t even be storing your rattle cans in a cold area. Read the can. I keep mine inside my house, in a closet, on a shelf, in my hobby room.

@MrMarrok657

I go outside, rattle can them while snowing and bring them inside in front of a fan to dry/cure. Never had one issue. Just primed my buddies Thraka today.

@Emperor_Atlantis

I never knew this! Thanks!

@sbip88

Got an airbrush for this reason. Too hot, too cold, too humid. Avoid all that with a little airbrush and a corner in my basement.

@foxross

I did not know that, thank you

@jonnyjonjo

I warm my spray cans always whether it's warm or cold it just makes the paint flow better in my opinion

@Caim8829

I cannot unseen the finger print in the border of the base
