Yes, absolutely. I've done it multiple times (I checked with Rusto support before I tried this the first time and they said it was fine). However, you lose the ability to sand the primer in between, so it's harder to achieve a very smooth final finish. Also, I want to limit total number of coats applied in a session, probably wouldn't want to go above four. Seems to invite trouble if you apply too much paint at once.So with paints that play well together (I.e., not mixing enamel and lacquer), the instructions say recoat within one hour or wait 24 to 48 hours. Can you mix primers and colors in that 1 hour window?
1 hour window start upon application of the first coat; what you've written there is over 2 hours worth of painting. Typical recoat time is approximately 10-20 minutes I would say. These days I target 10 minutes, which gets me finished within about 1/2 hour.E.g,, hit with primer, 45 minutes later second primer, 45 minute later base color, 45 minutes later perhaps a shade?
Okay, so clock starts from first coat, doesn't restart with each NEW coatYes, absolutely.
