I am a newbie building my fourth rocket since joining this thread. I carefully did all according to the book on this large SA-14 Archer that I paid 60 bucks for, and then at my local hardware store I saw Rust-Oleum Adhesion Promoter Primer, "Bonds Topcoats to Vinyl, Plastic, Fiberglass and more." So when I was ready I gave a couple coats. Then I applied Rust-Oleum gloss white. Gave a couple coats that went on great. So, I thought a bit more of a good thing ain't bad. I applied one more light coat of the Adhesion Promotor and then...all heck broke loose. Major orange peeling. No, Leprosy of the paint. Bubbling, blisters, horror.
Immediately I tried to take it off with paint thinner and paper towels...taking of all the previous layers leaving cliffs of paint, divots. Imagine the worst.
So, my thought is leave it to dry for two days or more...lightly sand, fill the divots, and go on with painting gloss white. Obviously my immediate response while the paint was still wet didn't work.
Any ideas?
