Paint Issues
gilby4runner:
I am in the middle of restoring an old Defender Cabinet. I have painted the base coat ( rustoleum gloss black). My red and yellow are krylon spray paint. I put my red coat down and let it dry over night. This afternoon I couldn't resist doing the front of the cabinet. When the yellow went on top of the red it had a crackle effect. What's the deal? Did I not give the red enough time? Any ideas would be appreciated!! Thanks!

Spray paint is very tricky. Sounds like a drying problem, check the can.

I will post up some pics. It was painted inside my basement. I primed it with 3 coats of primer, sanded and applied 3 coats of rustoleum. (roller). The red paint (spay krylon) went on well and looks great. The reaction I had was with the yellow when it went on top of the red.

Did you re-sand the areas where you sprayed the yellow?
