Sorry for doing another topic about this but didnt know if this would get seen if i replied to my origional thread.

For those that replied on my orgional topic about the cracking paint on my mini

Basically after rubbing the areas back i noticed a bit of a pattern occuring everywhere i had the cracking i had used etch primer on and the colour of the etch primer was very simular to the colour of the 2k primer so i think i had rubbed through the primer into the etch primer and where the two met the paint was reacting with the etch primer and cracking.
So i have decided to re-prime and start again making sure i dont rub through!!

Would what i have said above make sense? I asked the paint suppliers what the colour paint was that i was using and its just Nexa basecoat means nothing to me its not 2k just basecoat thought id clear this one up.

Thanks again for all that replied previously
