This primer is a good choice for light colors like white, yellows, blues, anything pastel/pale in color benefits from the white primer. My only complaint about this particular primer finish is that it does have a slightly powdery trait to it (this has happened with several different cans of the primer) which is not as clean as other primers. Outside of that one particular issue this primer does an excellent job for a base-coat to apply your finishing coat on top of. If you are doing a lighter project this is a good choice, just bear in mind about the powdering issue that I've experienced does have a tendency to get onto other things than just the project.
