Default anyone used auto paint, bad effects

has anyone or does anyone ever use this shit ive had nothing but problems with this paint everytime i use it

first car was an astra estate doing it in mg blue it was a twat to cover for a matter of fact the car is still in bits in the corner, everytime i done the roof it would react thay kept telling me it was my problem but it was in a place that was emty no oil polish etc.

i bought some more paint of them for another car just done the roof and the same thing has happend i swear its there shit top coat the f**king roof needs re doing again you cant get a good flow on the paint the only way to do it is dust coats you cant put one good final coat on

i use to buy paint from another company and never ever had any problems with there paint it was expensive but i should keep to them

it might be the paint underneith reacting pal some paints wont spray on top of others

i think 2k wont go over acrilic but you can spray acrilic over 2k or some shit like that

my car has reacted in a good few places i had to 2000 grit the reaction marks then just dust on the base coat in the affected area then laquer

chin up and keep trying

as said use a sealer first, bar coat is a good choice, or strip it to bare metal abd start from a fresh base

Not sure if it's the same firm but I used auto paints in Swansea and their stuff was top notch.

Isn't the paint there paint is fine as for the mg
At the dealer I worked at we painted a blue
Ground coat before the colour , they only react
When applying heavy coats as above seal it first
