I'd second the advise of a base coat of white. Also, remember, Red is in the same tricky catagory as yellow, and white, etc. Depending on the brand of paint, acrylic or enamels..the results can vary more. My personal rule of thumb is..if I intend to paint a large area, I'll airbrush it over a base coat of white. If the area is small, or if I'm detailing, I'll usually use a #4/0 spotter. At any rate, a white base coat will help the Reds, Whites, Yellows, etc..cover fast and more opaque with less layers to apply. Good luck!
