I am painting some exterior woodwork and would normally use a Dulux or Leyland solvent based paints. I was reading elsewhere of someone using a primer then undercoat that could be each painted over after only 30 minutes whereas the Dulux one I bought says 16 hours before next coat.

The faster speed is attractive but having been told by my late FiL (a pro painter and decorator) to use good quality paints I am wary.

Advice please guys?

Thanks

Acrylic primers dry quickly as they are water based. However, they are not as elastic and don't last as long as oil based paints.
