Spiteful production, primer used.

Morning chaps,
Not your everyday question.
When the Spitful was produced did Supermarine use yellow etchprimer to protect the skin before painting or were wartime procedures used where the bare aluminium skin was sprayed/painted over?

Thanks in advance,
Cees

Be nice wouldn’t it Oxcart? I was in touch with a South African guy living in London about 20 years ago who wanted to do something like that. Lost touch and can’t remember his name now, wonder if he ever made a start on it.
