Question Painting interior - Question about primer

Hey guys,

I've begun to redo my interior. I've gotten all the sanding done and am ready to apply primer. My problem is I'm using a fabricated center panel that was previously painted red and then grey over top, I've almost sanded off all of the grey but the red will not come off.

If I use a CLEAR primer on the red panel, and on the regular plastic sanded panels, will the silver paint im using be a different color on the panel that was red? I plan on using 4 coats of primer, 5 coats paint, and 4 clear coat.

this is the primer I'd like to use: http://www.duplicolor.com/products/adhesion.html followed by dupli silver and dupli clear coat.

Any help would be gladly appreciated, thanks for your time.

Personally, while DupliColor does call it that, I wouldn't call it a primer. I'd use the adhesion promotor to get the tack, then duplicolor high-build primer ontop of that. sand it smooth, then paint.

Four coats of primer, 5 of topcoat and 4 of clearcoat is overdoing it.

Sherwin-Williams makes a universal bonding primer in a quart that costs about $11. The part # is B51W20. One coat of this will promote enough adhesion to just about any topcoat you choose to apply over it.
