It is finecast and I did wash it. It sat in water+Dawn overnight, followed by a quick scrub. I allowed it to completely air dry before priming. The primer bonded fine. I let it dry for several days to be sure it was ready. My problem is with the Citadel paint bonding to the Valspar primer.
Isn't the Valspar very slick?
