Hey guys,
Well, I'm sitting here just about broken-hearted and frustrated in the extreme. Ijust tried to clear coat the my Modified's body here, using Tamiya Clear, and here's what happened;
A light sanding of the part shows that it has indeed attacked the paint beneath...
The same thing has happened to themain body, although not as extreme. And though the body was painted in Krylon (the pink hue) and Tamiya (the Black and the Gold) the results were the same on both surfaces--but only in certain areas. I had washed the bodywith dishwasing liquid last night before going to bed, and set it out to dry. So I don't think there are any oils or contaminants on it?
Strangely, the same thing happened THREE TIMES with just the Krylon when spraying it. I am still wondering if it has to do with heating the spray bottle before spraying it? It's about 60 degrees in the house, and I heated up the Tamiya spray can for about 3-4 minutes in warm water.
I can't figure this out. It's heartbreaking and really p***ing me off! If the rest of the body underneath hadn't turned out so well, I'd be tempted to give this a "flat" finish--as in under my boots! As it is, it's in the ol' "Simple Green" bath again....![Banged Head [banghead]](/emoticons/icon_smile_banghead.gif)
Anyone have any clue as to what is going on here?
