Smooth Base Coat with Mr. Hobby GSI-B528 Mahogany Surfacer 1000

The Mr. Hobby GSI-B528 Mahogany Surfacer 1000 is a spray primer made for RC hobbyists who want a consistent, even base before painting. This 170ml can gives good coverage for detailed parts and larger body panels alike.

Benefits of Using a Mahogany Surfacer

With its fine particle mix, the Mahogany Surfacer 1000 improves paint adhesion and helps hide minor surface defects, delivering a cleaner finish. The mahogany hue offers a warm undertone that can subtly shift the look of transparent or lighter topcoats for richer results.

Spray Technique and Preparation

  • Preparation: Clean the model thoroughly to remove dust, oils, and release agents before spraying.
  • Distance: Keep the can around 20-30 cm from the part to lay down even coats.
  • Layering: Build up the primer using several thin passes rather than one heavy application to prevent runs and pooling.

Where This Surfacer Excels

This primer works well on plastic and resin kits, delivering a smooth surface that brings out panel lines and details. It is suitable for both small-scale components and larger RC shells where a reliable foundation is needed for follow-up paint layers.

Yes. Metal parts accept the surfacer provided you degrease and scuff the surface first to promote adhesion.
Wait until the coat is tack-free before the next pass, typically around 15 minutes under normal workshop conditions.
The warm base can influence translucent or thin topcoats, adding depth; with opaque dark colours the effect is usually minimal.
