If you use WLS and do not sand the final application, it for= ms an nice epoxy barrier.  Oil and exhaust residue is easily washed of= f.  I flew for 200 hours in primer.  When ready for painting I wi= ped down the under side of the plane with acetone.  -no paint issues 1= 0 yrs/1,000 hours later.  I'm sure there are many primers that will gi= ve you different/bad results.

One nice aspect of getting the p= lane outside for a bit while still in primer, is that it will hel= p bake the primer and eliminate the post-painting shrinkage that shows the = weave pattern of the glass.
