Smallboy Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Hi guys, Just quick question, I've never used Purity Seal beforE, whats your feelings on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Valerius Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Avoid at all costs. From my experience (and what others have said), it will fog up your minis seemingly at random (I once used it on three marines, and the first/third were fine, while the second got ruined). I haven't used it myself, but Testor's Dullcote has been said to be more reliable, not to mention cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boltergeist Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Yep, it's trash. Dullcote is the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother_Ovis Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Opinions vary. I use it with good effect, haven't experienced any frosting. Lots of my gaming buddies use it too and don't complain. It seems one of the better options as famous Testors Dullcote is unavailable in my country for some reason. Having sprayed over 1000pts with PS and Army Painter Matte I start thinking that all frosting problems people write about are caused by improper use of the spray (too close/too far from the model, wrong temperature, wrong humidity, can not shaken enough).

My experience suggests otherwise. Three minis were sprayed with the same can, in the same conditions, one after the other. #1 and #3 were fine, #2 came out fogged up. Purity Seal is simply a defective product, and while you may have had good luck with it, it can turn on you even when you're doing things fine.

KJB Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Even some of the ex-staffers in my local GW advised against it, said they had a load of complaints about a duff batch a while back - Seems like a consistency problem, I have 3 cans of Chaos black at the moment, 2 are good and one is just like black water I wont touch it again!
