Default High Build primer

Hello,

I'm at the stage now where I am rubbing back all of the tatty bit's on the underside of my Cossie before paint.

On the spare wheel bowl (under car) after I rubbed it back, it has slight pitting on the metal.

Am I right in thinking - Acid etch then High Build primer over the pitted areas then rub back?

It's just, I was told from the paint supllier to put body colour onto acid ecth after around 4-6 hours whilst it was still tacky and before it cures?
