I thought you meant which would be painted on first. The first coat! Oh well!
That was cute. I thought the answer was that Jason had to put on his coat first, since he was going outside.

I liked. It almost through me off. At fisrt I thought it was his coat that would go on first but after reading it again I understood it. "Which coat would go on THE first." Not too bad. A little easy but fun.
Woot, I actually got this one. Yeah, so nice teaser and all.
i read "go on the first" and couldn't stop thinking "the first what?" (drives me mad when sentences aren't completed, although i do realise the teaser wouldn't have worked without it), and as the hint said 'read it carefully' i just continued to wonder what first they were referring to (first gear, first coat, first bike, first tin of paint...)
It would be the first coat if it was a new color
The hint kinda gave it away for me.
