Unless you have paint failure or peeling, priming should not be necessary. 2 coats of a top quality finish should have you just where you want to be.
I do have such pity on you for HAVING to live in such a dreadful place as the islands…. Oh the horrors. Need a painter for oh say 6 months or so?
When changing the exterior color of a light gray house to mustard yellow, priming is recommended but not always necessary. While the existing paint is relatively new and in good condition, applying a primer can ensure better adhesion and a more uniform finish for the new color.
Priming serves several important purposes when changing colors on a house exterior. First, it helps create a smooth and stable surface for the new paint to adhere to, especially when transitioning from a light color to a deeper or more vibrant hue like mustard yellow. Additionally, using a primer can block out any remaining traces of the previous color, preventing it from bleeding through and affecting the final look of the new paint.
Although skipping the primer may be tempting, especially with a relatively new paint job, investing the time and effort into this preparation step can result in a longer-lasting and more professional finish. Furthermore, primer can also enhance the durability and longevity of the new paint job, protecting the exterior surfaces from wear and weathering over time.
