By 'hard plastic', I suppose you mean injection molded polystyrene. I use tube model cement for polystyrene, Testors brand, but others will work as well. I don't prime polystyrene, I just paint it with whatever I have on hand, usually cheap craft acrylics.

You'll shoot your eye out, kid.

This will be very helpful. FOW figures are often in hard plastic.
