This broad surface makes a much better connection to the primer than one tiny rare earth magnet.wappellioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545341272914600283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349727365634393854.post-64074942516838822082014-04-02T07:47:31.010-05:002014-04-02T07:47:31.010-05:00Unfortunately, I have to agree with Kara Nash, tha...Unfortunately, I have to agree with Kara Nash, that Rustoleum magnet primer is garbage. I put EIGHT coats of it on a play kitchen I built for my son, and his lightest magnets barely hold on. On some of his others, the weight of the magnet itself drags it down to the floor :(.<br />Hopefully yours turns out better, being a horizontal surface.

I only expect the magnet...Biscuits are tasty :-) <br /><br />I only expect the magnetic primer to hold lighter miniatures as I mention... resin, plastic and such.<br /><br />I use the metal sheets that I talked about for the heavy figures, using rare earth magnets to attach them. The magnetic primer is helpful on rougher surfaces, where something like a metal plate is not an option....wappellioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545341272914600283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349727365634393854.post-61953576433448496902014-04-02T00:45:33.131-05:002014-04-02T00:45:33.131-05:00I had a go with that Magnetic Primer once.
