Thoughts on what color of primer I should lay down?
Gray?
Dark grey?
Red?
Black? | | | | | Joined: May 2015 Posts: 11,067 Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums | | Housekeeping (Moderator) Making a Stovebolt Bed & Paint and Body Shop Forums Joined: May 2015 Posts: 11,067 | Original primer color on my Omaha Orange truck was black.
My paint shop advisor says primer should be close in tone to the top color. So for dark green, either dark grey or black.
