it's ok to drive around with it temporarily. but the acidity of recent rain water won't help your cause.

it's ok to drive very temporarily, but instead of deflecting water like paint and clearcoat, it will actually absorb water.

when you get the car you will have to block out all the primer anyways, its best to get a primer sealer but u can mix paint to act as a sealer also. so bottom line even if the water went through the primer, u have to block all the primer out before paint anyways so it could be taken care of then.

leave the primer for the low riders...they are only people that should have primed cars...also primer is poris and holds water in.. and thats like leaving a wet towel on a peice of metal sooner or later it will start to rust. because of the water always trap up against the car..and a primer sealer will prevent rust for a while but sooner or later the UV rays will eat it up since there is no clear coat with uv protectants in it.. primering a whole car and rocking it for a long time
