Now that I've got a roof skin lined up for my Satellite I'm getting ready to start the body work. Once I get that roof on I'm going to strip the rest of the car and prime it. I'm going to get the car painted white. Does it mater what color primer I use? If it doesn't mater Id like to get it in black or red primer.

you can use any color primer of your choice ,  but it is best to use a light gray  or a white primer for light colors  & including a  white top coat .

Where'd you find the roof at?

and if you use a darker primer with a light color it will take a whole lot of coats of paint to get it to cover properly.

It usually dont matter to me since I always seal my primer with a similar color as my base color. LEON.
