  • Re painting with enamel paints:

    Will a white base/primer produce a brighter orange than using a grey base/primer?

    Layers will (hopefully) be very thin using a 2:1 paint:thinner mix, possibly a 1:1

    Thanks.

  • If translucent, yes, white primer will add vibrancy. If you want a slight metallic effect a white primer then a silver base will do that.

    Other benefit of grey primer base is that it diffuses the colour of the material you are painting over. Can then apply a white coat on top of-lots of paint manufacturers have recommended primers for each colour/finish because of this.
