Paint and primer

I am getting ready to paint a room that needs primer first. Here is my question: My paint is too dark, can I add white primer to my paint to lighten it and then paint the wall??

Hi,

It is recommended to not combine primer with your paint color. My suggestion is to tint your color several tints lighter. If you apply your own primer to the existing dark color you may not get the desired result because of the lack of precision for a desired shade; therefore, get it professionally tinted to achieve the results. Primers are meant to prime walls.

I hope this helped.

Mary
