Primer

Primer is the first stage on any paint system. Both clear-over-base and solid colour styles of paintwork will have a primer on the metalwork before further layers of paint are applied at the factory. This creates a good bond to the metalwork or plastic while giving a suitable surface for subsequent paint layers to stick to.
