You got bad advice. Primer and paint are NOT the same thing and they are
NOT the same composition!

It's more economical to use primer.

Not knocking you Joe. It's a YMMV, IMHO type of post.

I figured the guy was being honest with me, since he stood to gain by
selling me a can of primer. In the end, he did anyway. About 10 of them over
5 years.
