one thing that i have not seen mentioned that i do use, is an Adhesion Promoter... expectially if i am going to be shooting anything plastic!
here is the one i use... autozone carries a dupicolor that is not to shabby either... I HIGHLY recomend this if shooting plastic because you can not use a self etching primer on plastic, (it wrinkles)... i know most of the stuff we shoot is metal... but for those of us that have a Street fighter project brewing up it realy helps to use this stuff before shooting paint!
