    It had one coat of Grey primer on it before I sprayed it with the Metallic Blue paint, the primer was completely covering the body before I started spray painting it, and I left the primer to dry overnight, the primer was dry to the touch before I started spray painting.


    I'm going to be a bit short of money till Tuesday the following week, I'll be able to buy more of the Grey primer then if you reckon it needs it.

    The good news is that I can't see any evidence of the paint reacting with the primer anywhere on the body.
