You can get plastoflex that you put on before spraying or put an plastic addative in your topcoat ,you can get these from your local motor factors.just tell them what paint your using and they should sort you the correct product .

When my painter painted mine he put a tiny bit of fairy liquid in with the paint mix. Not really sure if this is frowned upon or not, mine has come out fantastic with no cracks or reaction etc.
