it's been 40 years or so since i put one together. i don't remember ever brushing paint on the body, as in the cars were usually the proper color. i have a model that i want to start putting together, but the body and most of the parts that are going to get painted are in a 'primer gray' color. they have a semi-gloss sheen to them, which means any part that gets painted will have to be sanded first.

my question is, should i use a primer after sanding and before the color layer?
