Primer, particularly etch or epoxy bonds to the surface, the topcoat bonds to it. Modern paints will peel off after a period of time if there is not primer under them. It's paint over paint, but the primers and paints are designed for different applications. If you want a good, durable job, use primer, if you want to unload it on some sucker, just wash it and spray with the cheapest paint you can find. I have bought a couple of tractors like that, with the intention of stripping them and starting over, which I did. Briefly, on the cast epoxy followed by topcoat, on the sheet metal and anything else you want smooth, epoxy followed by sandable surfacer, followed by topcoat. The surfacer is sanded between coats until smooth.
