I would really like to find some blue primer which is the same as my gelcoat (or even close). Looking around my suppliers I can only find the usual red, grey, white or beige.
Is it possible to mix a little pigment into a white primer to get the required shade?

I am doing extensive mods to the fibreglass bodywork of my kit car and the result is a mish mash of all sorts of colours resulting from various fillers & primers. So.....

1. I am not an expert body modder and I am more likely to see imperfections if it's all the same colour.
2. I would like to get the car SVA'd before I paint the car (just in case of any last minute mods) and I just wanted to get the car to look a bit more respectable - pure vanity I suppose

Update:

I bought a litre of Acid etch (grey) primer and activator, also some strong blue pigment (from a colour matching system)
Adding a small amount of the pigment achieves a colour that is pretty close to my gel coat.
