Primers and Sealers

Professional Surface Preparation for Costume Painting

This collection features specialized primers and sealants, which form the essential foundation for every advanced cosplay project and LARP prop. These products create a protective, airtight barrier that prevents porous materials like EVA foam or Foam Clay from absorbing paint. Using the right preparation ensures a smooth, professional base, significantly improving pigment adhesion and the long-term durability of your armor or costume pieces.

Collection Assortment

• Acrylic Sealants: Flexible formulations designed to seal foam pores, preventing the absorption of water and solvents. Their consistency smooths out minor surface imperfections, preparing the material for paint application.
• Spray Primers: Aerosol-based formulas that ensure uniform application on complex shapes and intricate armor details. They create a thin, durable layer that drastically improves the adhesion of topcoats to the surface.
• Fillers and Putties: Specialized products used to level deeper scratches and seams between foam sheets. They allow for a perfectly smooth texture, which is crucial for achieving high-quality metallic finishes.
• Protective Base Coats: Chemical agents that shield the material from the harsh effects of solvent-based paints. They form an insulating layer that protects the foam structure from deformation or melting.
• Hybrid Products: Multi-purpose agents combining sealing and priming properties. They streamline your workflow, significantly reducing the time required to prep your props for the final painting stage.
