I like Rustoleum Filler-Primer. Dries fast, sands great. I lay it on heavy for the first few coats. If you get a run occasionally, no worries. Just sand them out. Put down extra along the spirals. Also, you must sand down until much of the primer is gone. That way you build up the spiral “valleys”. If you don’t sand down well, you are just laying on coats of primer that will still show the spirals. They will never seem to go away.
I only use the one pictured. I can not vouch for other Rustoleum primers. There are a lot! I find it at Walmart, in Automotive Dept., sometimes with paint, and often I order from Walmart.com, and have it shipped to store. Prices vary, but I’ve found it on sale for a little over $3 a can.
My favorite primer is Duplicolor, but it’s expensive. The Rustoleum is a good/cheap alternative.
