Morphology

repriming = reprime (transparent) = re + prime + ing

This is a regular noun or verbal noun formation from the verb 'reprime' with '-ing', meaning the act or process of doing it.

Etymology

Repriming comes from re- 'again' and prime (as in primer, the first coat that 'prepares' a surface). So repriming is simply 'preparing again' by putting a primer coat on once more before painting.
