I am just curious, maybe my mind is working overtime. On the old military aircraft from ww2. The planes I see were painted with Zinc Chromate inside. Were they primed before assembly or after. A related question, if two parts are primed or painted before assembly there are two layers of paint between the two parts joined with rivets. It seems to me that the paint/primer is not as tough as bare metal would be and might loosen with age. Is there any merit to this or am I just being anal.
