### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excelente imprimación en spray: cubre perfectamente y deja un acabado uniforme
*by A***I on 26 October 2025*

He probado varios sprays de imprimación para miniaturas y este de Vallejo es, sin duda, uno de los mejores. El acabado negro mate es impecable: cubre de forma uniforme, no deja grumos ni gotas y seca rápido, lo que facilita mucho el trabajo posterior de pintura. El difusor pulveriza de manera muy fina y controlada, lo que permite aplicar capas delgadas sin ocultar los detalles de las miniaturas o maquetas. Además, la adherencia es excelente tanto en plástico como en resina o metal. El bote cunde bastante, incluso con modelos grandes, y el resultado final deja una superficie perfecta para aplicar cualquier tipo de pintura acrílica o esmalte encima. En resumen, una imprimación de gran calidad, fácil de usar y con resultados profesionales, totalmente recomendable para aficionados y modelistas exigentes.
