If the paint is in good shape, no, you shouldn't put a primer on it. *Primer
is used to bond to the bare wood better and seal any sap in. *If you need to
scrape paint, use a primer on the bare spots.


Agree. Also, just read the directions on the particular paint product
you plan on using which will tell you what you need to do.
