I picked up a GID Munny to paint, (at a steal for $4.99 ;D) but was wondering how you can prime it while keeping the GID aspect. I'd much rather keep the glow in the dark because the way I want to do it is so that a lot of GID is showing. Do they have a clear primer, or can I just super wash it, and then lightly sand them with a fine grit sandpaper? Also what grit should I use to do it? This will be my first custom, but it's not going to be anything major.

heres a thread discussing it and showing creations without priming

viewtopic.php?f=27&t=185613

and im sure it doesnt NEED to be primed but keep in mind the smooth vinyl doesnt hold paint very well so if you put something like tape on a painted section it will pull the paint right off the toy ...you can try a flat clear spray, i assume that would work just like any other flat paint just not as thick maybe
