Spray. Note that some of those primers that come in a can also have some nasty fumes. Dipping or brushing those on will still expose you to fumes.

I use Z-spar marine undercoat and brush it on. I think it adheres better than the BIN stuff over oil sealer.

Not to get off the primer question but I have givin up on thinning my Val that much. I can't get rid of the terp. smell, even after a couple of weeks. I use it straight with just a smidge of terp. now. I just let it soak a little longer. Sorry for the hijack. P.

No problem Professor.
Jigman...I thought that may be the case. I was hoping the "nasty fumes" were coming more from the can propellant.
I have never dipped a plug in primer, but thought that might work too. Quick and easy, but the access run off might be a problem.
Z-spar marine undercoat...never tried it. Something to check out.

Tried dipping in the Bin stuff, once. Had waaaay too much primer on after only a quick dip. Took a long time to dry and had to sand a bunch off before painting. It maybe something you could do if you thinned it out some. I've seem photos of CCBC dipping large batches of plugs at a time, so it is possible.
