Primers and Sealers

Professional Surface Preparation for Costume Painting

This collection features specialized primers and sealants, which serve as the essential foundation for any advanced cosplay project or 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 preparer allows you to achieve a smooth, professional base, significantly improving pigment adhesion and the long-term durability of your finished armor or costume piece.

Collection Assortment

• Acrylic Sealants: Flexible formulations dedicated to closing foam pores, preventing the absorption of water and solvents. Their consistency levels out minor surface imperfections, preparing the material for paint application.
• Spray Primers: Aerosol-based products providing even coverage on complex shapes and intricate armor details. They form a thin, durable layer that significantly increases the adhesion of topcoats to the substrate.
• Putties and Fillers: Specialized products used to smooth out deeper scratches and seams between foam sheets. They enable an perfectly smooth texture, which is crucial for achieving a flawless metallic finish.
• Protective Bases: Chemical agents that shield the material from the harsh effects of paints containing aggressive solvents. They create an insulating layer that protects the foam structure from deformation or degradation.
• Hybrid Products: Multi-purpose agents combining sealing and priming properties. They streamline your workflow, reducing the time required to prepare a prop for the final painting process.
