A Primary Yellow, Red or Blue paint color usually refers to a paint that contains only one pigment. For instance, if you mix Cadmium Red + Ultramarine Blue, you'll likely be sadly disappointed. If you were expecting a deep rich Violet (Purple), the resulting Brown will be a total surprise. The problem is paint pigment never works like that in real life.
