the primer is Water Based Acrylic Polyurethane ...so I would say yes to the enamel over that primer.
If your not sure, just test it on small pieces of plastic. Better yet, stick to the norm...systems that work.

Yeah, I just have not had time to test it. Figured someone here should have done it already since the stynylrez has been out for a while. Mine arrived last week, but have not even torn open the shrink wrap.
My norm is a base coat of lacquer thinned Tamiya. Appreciate ya!
