Chuck, if it didn’t happen on the first coat would that mean it had to become contaminated before the second coat? If so it would have had to come from me handling them. I hung the disassembled pieces outside to paint them and at the end of the day I took them down and brought them in the house. Two days later I took them outside and painted them again.I build a lot of static models as a hobby, airplanes, ships and such. I have run into this on more than a few occasions. And in each time it was caused by contamination on the surface that I was painting. Oils, release agents or something like that. Even oils from my hands from handling. Can’t say for certain that is what happened to you, but that would be my guess.
I kind of thought it might be something like that John. I used Krylon on the low heat areas of the frame and Tremclad on the high heat areas because the Krylon high heat comes out brown. I think it is where they overlap that the crinkling happens. Looks like I will be getting out the sandpaper and try to fix it. Thanks.Paint incompatibility, the top coat lifted the base coat. You have to sand it off and start over, one was lacquer and one was enamel. I forget which way it goes but one won't lift the other in reverse order.
