; no primer.

You wrote your own answer. Did you think those colors would just paint
over? Now instead of two coats, primer and paint, you will have four.
Pretty good coverage I'd say.


The most difficult color to cover is red. Especially true in auto
painting. Trying to turn a red Mustang into white is burdensome :-)
IIRC the primer on red was also red, eventually getting to gray.

House walls painted red, I read to prime with a gray color. Then
paint.

Both cases reduce bleeding when covering red paint.
