Got the Field Marshal kit and looking to start painting before the BlastFX electronics show up. 

 

However, have zero experience painting Aluminum so is there a recommended primer and paint I should use?  Will be painting parts before assembly, so don't want something that'll be too thick and create issues.

 

Thanks!

I use industrial paints for props which seems to adhere a little better than other paints, you could use an etch primer, or even just give a light sand with some fine wet/dry sandpaper, it will help the paint adhere. I would first give everything a wash, some times you can have grease spots or finger prints which can react with paint.

E11 should it be gloss, semi gloss or flat black?
