When u talked about how u didnt know why paint sticks better to primer than plastic, is because the primer provides something to hold on to, its like say you were climbing a wall, could you hold on if the were nothing to grab on to or step on? No. Now this isnt on the smae scale as with primer/paint but its the same idea. I've seen this qoute before but cant remember where: you dont use primer? Well then you'll have to live with the consequenses. Whitch is completly true! Not using primer is a stupid mistake.

It was good enough for me, I've added it to the primer section.
