A primer is a type of coating or paint that is applied to a surface in order to prepare it for additional layers of paint or other materials. There are several different types of primers, including those that are designed for use on metal surfaces, wood surfaces, and concrete surfaces. One common type of primer is red lead primer, which is typically used on metallic surfaces to provide a corrosion-resistant base layer. Red lead primer contains lead-based pigments that help to protect the metal from rust and other types of corrosion.
