does this need priming

No priming is needed. To preserve pump life I use an inline filter and always make sure the water supply is close.

If you mean "operate without water" then the answer would be no. I did try to pump without water and didn't damage the water-pumper.

I didn't need to prime it. I used it to drain my waterbed quickly..... Just turned it on and it started sucking. However, I don't know about using a longer hose.

The product literature states that priming should be performed using vegetable oil before every use, but unless you are going to let the pump sit for a while between uses, this is not necessary before every use. Because it lubricates the inside of the pump, priming with vegetable oil should be performed before the first use and if the pump has been sitting and is dry on the inside.

It will prime itself but it needs a little oil (canola or vegetable ) to be poured into the inlet side. This helps the impeller to seal against the chamber walls. I believe this is recommended each time you use it.

I haven't tried it yet, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Although the instructions say no need for priming... I still would probably use a fine grain sandpaper on the vinyl first, then spray in thin layers spraying each layer within 12 hours of each other. After 7 days it should be nice solid for you. I wouldn't try it on something as flexible as sheet vinyl.

You can, but even thow it says "doesn't need primed", I did have to prime mine with water before it would pump.

This product will remove spent primers if your dies are equipped with a decapping pin (as most are). Priming or re-priming is accomplished with the "Ram Prime" assembly which is included in the Breech Lock Hand Press Kit (the hand press is also sold without this attachment so check that you are buying the kit). You can know that you are buying the Kit if the description includes a funnel and case lube. This is a handy item for loading at the range or doing small batches anywhere.

You would have to prime it first and then paint. If you paint without priming the paint may not stick.

Hello Bill, To use any primer or paint, you have to clean the metal. Most new metal has at least traces of manufacturing oil on it. This will ruin your paint job even before it's finished. Clean the metal with a strong dishwashing liquid and rinse well with hot water. If you don't have compressed air, at least get as much water out of the inside as possible, then dry off the tube with a clean towel. The make sure that the first inch of the inside is dry so the paint on the edges is not affected by water. Then Prime. The thorough cleaning is very important. Hope that helps! Joe

Sandi, I do not know the answer to that. We used it all & disposed of the can. It worked beautifully for us though & I still recommend. What are you priming with it? We used on formica as it was the only product I could find for that purpose. Good luck. Annette

Easily. Just sand lightly and spray a fog of primer (dark) prior to spraying black. Be careful at the recesses not to let the paint gob up or miss a complete coat.You could even use different pull hardware; perhaps silver. And if you want pulls in a different location, fill in the 2 existing holes with pegs & putty, or just putty with adequate drying time, prior to priming.

Needs to be totally dry, time depends on the temperature and exposure to sunlight. If in doubt, let it dry longer so primer and paint adhere properly.

Yes, it is self-priming in my application. That is, with an above ground pool that utilizes an in-wall pump inlets and outlets. Hope this helps.

This pump is not self priming. Nor is it auto auto turn on/off. If you leave it running dry it'll run and burn out.

Bought it to test tea grades. However, I still have not bought the necessary priming agent, so no tests have been performed yet.

As long as you push the priming handle all the way forward before you pull it back you will not experience a jam. very good gun.

Not to me. I followed all the directions for priming this grill, and the food still stuck like glue. It is very heavy & awkward to handle. Hope this helps with your decision.

Yes, the CDU980E is self priming. To activate the switch on the float sooner, my brother cut an empty styrofoam spool of thread and placed it above the float.
