Can your mix latex paint with its own tinted primer together and apply as one coat?
It will work over another latex paint, however it won't be as scrubable as a normal top coat, and it won't adhere as well as a paint over a primer. Better to apply the primer, then the paint. If the surface is clean and deglossed though, you really don't need a primer and can coat the surface with a quality wall paint.

The best primer for you will depend on your skin type and concerns. A good general option is a hydrating primer for dry skin, a mattifying primer for oily skin, or a blurring primer for minimizing pores and imperfections.

What color primer should you use with valspar mediterranean seaside blue?
Since it is an oceanic blue color, I'd suggest that you use a primer that is tinted to at least 3/4 of the top coat. This should give enough coverage over the old color to allow you to recoat with only one additional coat. If the primer is not available in that dark of a color, then a gray primer will suffice.

In order to paint plastic, you need to first coat the plastic with a bonding primer, the best bonding primer on the market is called x.i.m. it is available in a clear and a white in quarts, usually about 18 dollars a quart.

How do you paint new wood?
I generally use an oil-based primer to start, because of its superior penetrating ability and because it will not be degraded by the wood's natural oils as they leach out (cedar is especially prone to this effect). After priming, a good-quality latex top coat will hold its colour much longer than oil. Ideally you should apply one coat of primer and two top coats, but a time and money saver is to have the primer tinted to match the finish colour, then use only one top coat. Bear in mind, though, that this approach will diminish the life of the paint job.

Do paints come with primer in them?
No, you buy the primer separate and paint with it first, let it dry then get the paint and paint over the primer. There are several paint applications where the paint can be used as a primer, and this is called a self-priming paint. In addition, many paints are marketed as a paint and primer in one, however, that refers to its ability to adhere well to a surface and to cover the previous coat. In more difficult priming situations, like staining or painting with a very dark color over a light color, it's recommended to use a dedicated primer followed by a top coat.
