Primer is a waste of time, right?

Waste of time" is the kind of thing people say to feel better about skipping steps. I see it everywhere, like when someone just slaps new paint over old peeling stuff because they're in a hurry. It looks okay for a minute, then it all goes bad. Price.rowan is right that some paint jobs hold up, but that's luck, not a plan. It's like not prepping a wall before you hang a picture, sure it might stay up, but you're just asking for a crash later.

Honestly, is skipping primer really that big of a deal? I've seen plenty of paint jobs hold up just fine without it.
