So I'm having my first go at using a PE detail kit and can't seem to get a good coat of paint to stick. Any advice? Mark Currently: Soliel Royal, Deag DC-3, AL L'Hermione La Fayette

You need a metal primer or paint will not stick.

It also helps to lightly sand the PE parts to give the paint something to stick to.
