I always prime and paint after routing except when I "V" carve inwards. Here is my procedure:
1) Rout job
2) Wash with water/garden hose and let dry
3) Brush prime
4) 2 coats of primer sprayed
5) 2 coats finish
If it's a sign that is placed distantly, I will not prime, just use finish...
Although some use MDO Plywood as a backer, I prefer to use alumalite. I do not paint the back side of HDU, I clean it well and use Lord adhesive to glue the two together, then set a few stainless screws from behind. As for routing speeds, I will run it as fast as my chip vac will pick it up...
