Don't know about Ford but Dodge Brothers wiped the bodies down with gasoline, no primer. They got two coats and were sanded then got a final coat before going into the oven. I've read that in factory documents. And I've seen a factory video of the body being painted by garden hoses one guy on each side. The excess ran back into the vat to be reused. Plenty of runs in an original paint car.
