A primer is a preparatory product. It creates an extra layer between your paint and the substrate, helping it last longer, bond better and often smoothing out the surface for optimum lifespan and performance. To look at it a different way, makeup primers are used for the same purpose in cosmetics!
Primers can also be used to add more specific extra protection, such as using a UV primer, a waterproofing primer or a penetrating primer.

If you are to use a system with a separate basecoat and topcoat then the topcoat must remain intact to protect the intumescent layer.
Providing the topcoat is regularly checked and maintained then you shouldn’t need to re-apply the intumescent, only the topcoat where needed.
