Default Hard Body Primer Options

Hey guys,
I've checked my local hobby shops and could not find any Primer for my Tamiya Tundra body. I have a TS-86 Red paint and a TS-13 Clear Coat. Any options for a primer that will work well with these Tamiya paints on a hard body?

Thanks guys, the duplicolor primer worked great!!!! I used a tamiya TS-86 on top and came out really good. Next time I'll just use a duplicolor paint too as I eneded up using 2 cans of the tamiya paint and thats getting expensive :S
