Hello.
This is the dodgey paint that is holding me back.
Have stripped it back down like 4 times and tried respraying it...
Keeps on doing the same thing...
Any ideas?
looks to be something like grease or something on the metal not letting it stick properly...
But it has been sanded back and prepwashed several time

I dunno. any feedback?

That is primer.
Underneath is etch primer and then primer on top...
I think I'll just have to really sand it back harshly and re do it again

you sure it's not an enamel paint you're trying to cover,i had a similar problem trying to paint acrylic over enamel on my 1000 club car,in the end i took the panel right back to metal & started again.bloody panel beaters agreeing to repaint the car for nothing,used cheap paints,then went out of business so i couldn't get touch ups.

Is that 2pac paint? What undercoat did you use. I know 2pac paints really need a 2pac primer. Acrylic paints are normally fine whichever way.
