I created a post on here awhile back asking the same question. For some reason I can't seem to find the thread, but the consensus was don't use primer underneath Metalizers. OTOH, make sure the plastic is as perfect as you can get it (mold lines removed, etc).

No...do not use primers under metalizers. They work best on highly polished bare plastic. In fact, the smoother the better!

I have sprayed it over primer with sucess , I buffed the primer with a pantyhose first and it gave the metallic a realistic sheen, like raw metal.

But it is not necessary to prime first.
