When painting one of my Jordan kits it mentions to use "Barrier" before painting with any of the solvent based Floquil paints. What exactly is Barrier and who makes it?
Thanks,

Barrier - Clear, quick-drying solvent-proof undercoat for use on
polystyrene. Prevents crazing - Made by Floquil
Years ago Floquil was reformulated to meet enviromemtal regulations
Barrier is not necessary with modern Floquil paint, according to this discussion:

I have brushpainted the reformulated Floquil on plastic models without any problems.
I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.
I don't have a leg to stand on.
