Chuck,
I would prime if it were me. I've worked in aviation for 31 years and not
priming is a BAD idea! My 2 cents worth.

> I am about to repaint my HMMWV and had a few questions. The paint on it
now is sound but fadded everywhere except for the rear cargo area. The
cargo area is down to the bare metal in most places. My question is should
this area be primed? and if so with what? Would it be ok to just paint the
bare metal since it is aluminum? It does not appear that there ever was any
type of primer. I know aircraft have a zinc chromate under coat.
