Do you need to be a specific age to buy spray paint from a warhammer store?

Hey guys, im just wondering if you have to be a specific age to buy spray paint from a warhammer shop, as i recently got some more figures. But havent used the paint before (to my dismay), so i've decided to undercoat my new figures.



Thanks guysDo you need to be a specific age to buy spray paint from a warhammer store?
In the UK you must be 16 or over to buy spray paint in any form, including the spray gun and compressed air cannisters.



You may be interested to know that you can save a considerable sum buying online at shops like http://maelstromgames.com, who offer free postage as well as a discount on GW prices, although you will wait a week or more for delivery, sometimes. You still need to be over 16, of course, so if that's a problem you will need to ask your parents to place the order on your behalf.



When using spray primer, black is best for beginners as it hides a multitude of sins. Spray in a well-ventilated area or, better still, outdoors. Use a large cardboard box as a spray booth and place your miniatures inside it, on their backs, on a piece of paper or card. You can then turn the card around as you spray your miniature from every angle.



Once it has dried - this takes about 15 minutes to be touch-dry - you can then turn the miniatures over and repeat for a smooth, all-over undercoat that's ready to take paint in 30 minutes.Do you need to be a specific age to buy spray paint from a warhammer store?
Depends on where you live - different places may have different laws about it.



May also want to try getting sprays from other places like home supply stores - works just as well as the GW ones but can be a lot cheaper.Do you need to be a specific age to buy spray paint from a warhammer store?
I think you have to be over 16 to buy spray paints. btw, save money by buying car primers; Hycote is pretty good stuff and cost about 拢2.50.
well, from experience i've had, no.



you could always say your mum/dad has sent you round to get it, works all the time :D
