trouble basecoating

ok i prime my models ready to basecoat. But how exactly, i prime with black(hand applied)(starting to prime) mostly, sometimes white(primed). I use foundation paints as my base coat but i can never get the specs of black and white out, i dont water it down(am i supposed 2?) but after like 3 coats of foundation paint it never gets out, i did it once but it took me like 4 hours to basecoat it and i applied like 12 coats. what am i doing wrong

ok thank you i guess i will have to take my time and get into eery little spot

I have that same problem too. but only with a few paints like red and yellow.

Almost hate to ask such a simple question, but are you guys shaking the paint before using it?

happened to me...
