Masonite can be painted, but it needs to be sealed first. Sand the siding with 80-grit sandpaper or a sanding block, but do not scrape the siding, as it can dislodge chunks of the siding. Apply a layer of primer before painting.

Will the paint and primer together paint over masonite paneling?

I find your meaning a bit difficult to understand. -You don't paint and prime together. -The primer must be applied first and become totally dry before painting is carried out. If you're concerned about covering ability, use a good thick primer like Kilz. It will completely hide anything. If the masonite is pre-primed, then a paint and primer in one will work fine. If it is bare, then you need to treat it like wood and either give it two coats of the paint and primer in one, or better, give it a coat of primer, then paint.
