No, I didn’t wash the parts as the tank arrived assembled and painted green from Hooben. I presume they handled that. I covered their paint. they appeared not to use any primer, but I really think I was too far away with my airbrush when covering larger areas. Need to keep it safe until I clear coat it too…keep my grubby hands off it.
