OK to leave primer on the tips?

[bruceh]

I've been working on the final finishing up of the various wing and empennage tips. Sanded the gelcoat down smooth, filled some defects with micro, sanded again, and this weekend I shot some UV Smooth Prime on them. This stuff is really thick, even when applying a few light coats. I plan on running some more sand paper over everything to get them all smoothed out again.

My question is what comes next? I don't have any immediate plans to do the final paint job. I want to get flying first. Do I need to put some sort of paint or sealer on these before I fly? I'm tempted to hit them with some glossy rattle can paint for a little bit of color (I hate the plain white look). I realize that what ever I put on in the interim would get stripped off for final paint. I just don't want to make more work for me if the UV Smooth Prime is going to be OK on the fiberglass for a while.

The cowling is going to be lots of fun to prep and sand and fill and sand...
