Default major car paint problem please help

guys i stripped my car down and done minor repairs before it had a full cover of grey primmer

the paint im putting on is mg trophy blue..

it took 3 goes to get it to cover the car (doors etc are removed) it needs 8 coats of paint to cover the bloody primmer if the sun shine's on it you will still see the primmer under the paint thats why it needs so much paint

it has come up perfect

but now ive started on the doors still the same problem im putting 7 coats of paint on it and you can still see the primmer under it if i shine a l.e.d light on it, it just wont cover..

i asked for 2 pack not water base but !!!!!

it takes around 25 mins for first coat to dry

if i do the mix of 50 50 like thay say it looks like piss and is so thin its like water with blue dye in it

i left the paint on the doors for 6 days and when i rub the basecoat down its getting lumps of paint on the sand paper and it feels like there is dust on the panel like sanding grit, it also seems to be rubbing back down to the primmer very quick after putting 8 coats on

any idea ?????

have thay given me water base paint its immpossible to spray it and has wasted 4 weeks of time and money
