Default Re: Primer with sealer in it.

you have primer, or you have sealer. There are numerous types of primers. Acid etc, epoxy, urethane, primer surfacer (urethane), lacquer etc etc etc. Depending on the primer as well, you can have it tinted or in value shades. I know dupont you can use value shades, Sherwin williams you can tint...im sure you can tint almost all of them. But I wont go there.

If you have, per say, a yellow car and you are fixing a dent then painting it yellow again you dont need a sealer. Prime the are with a value shade of around 4 (grey). If you have a black car and you are fixing a area where your primer is white for some reason, you might consider using a sealer with a shade of 6-7 (dupont). If you have a white car and you are doing a overall paint job going to red, I would reccomend a sealer. The sealer will be closer to the color you are trying to achieve helping to get coverage quicker with fewer coats of paint.
