Do I need to prime or just spray straight onto the bare clean casting?

I'm glad this has come up. I've been wondering if you prime it, do you have to use a fire/heat rated primer? Cheers Ron

Its an alkalide resin enamel so no real need for a primer.
White will certainly help under red or yellow, again not a primer just buy a tin of white and spray it with that first as white covers better than red, 1 can of white plus 1 can of red will cover more area and look better than 4 cans of red.
Very expensive but very convenient, like most pressure packs.

VHT engine enamels always were shit paint for coverage. Holts Dupli-colour was far superior to VHT. If it is true VHT have taken over Dupli-colour I hope they haven't lowered the standard of that product.

Straight on the clean cast, no primer.
