Execution Priority in custom Attributes in asp.net mvc

Question

I have two custom attributes in my asp.net mvc(C#) application.

[CustAttribute1()]
[CustAttribute2()]

When I use those attributes to my actions, which will get executed first?

[CustAttribute1()]
[CustAttribute2()]
public ActionResult Index()
{

Can I use more than one custom attributes for my actions? If so, in the above Action, which custom attribute will execute first?

Set the Order property.

[CustAttribute1(Order=2)]
[CustAttribute2(Order=1)]
public ActionResult Index() {
    return View();
}

What about the attributes which are added in filters in FilterConfig (Mvc 5)

Without specifying the Order, does the order of appearance is the order of invocation?

It's true only for FilterAttribute
