It'll be fine with just primer. I'd not leave base too long without clear
over the top, although normal clear offers little UV protection.

Primer isn't waterproofed - so if you don't get it covered over, water
will get into it and you'll end up having to sand it back and start
again.

Probably be ok if you warm it to dry it thoroughly. After all, you
wet-flat primer...It's a big problem with metal underneath though, as it
rusts.

True. I was doing a quick and dirty repair on the sills of my Primera a
few years back, the primer soaked up water like a sponge.

DAMHIKIJDOK.

That's a new one on me. What is it?

Don't Ask Me How I Know, I Just Do, OK?
