colored primer

i was wanting to just run a flat color or primer but i just didnt want grey. i went to a parts store who does paint mixing and they searched for like an hour before giving up on even a black primer or even a flat color. all they said was it will fade in the sun u dont want it. i have seen people on here with colored prime where can i get it. thanks

Color primer is just regular primer tinted!

Just ask them to tint it blue, green, black, purple, etc...

Yes it will still be flat...

thanks Dev for the info and thanks again on the switch box

Not a problem dude!

Thank you!

primer does fade in deed. i put my arms on the ruff of my truck one day while i was talkin to some buddys, few minutes later i noticed the whole backside of my arm was black, you could also lay some clear coat down on it and ruff it up a bit with sandpaper to give it back the flat look

Try Hotrod Flatz -

Or just ask your paint supplier to mix a flattener into your paint.

hotrod flatz is actually paind but it doesnt fade as fast

It shouldn't fade any more than any other single stage paint. It's flattened single stage urethane paint. If you want to know the TRUTH, it's PPG's omni line, sold pre-flattened by TCP Global.

Just trying to offer this guy a solution that will actually last a while... Primer was never meant to be used as a &quot;final&quot; coat.

I have real life experience with the HotRod Flatz product... And I will tell you firsthand, it is durable, easy to use, and hides amateur bodywork quite well.
