Just shown the old man, and apparently its the kind of reaction you get if you paint cellulose paint on top of 2pac paint
Ahhhh, that's prob it then. I bought it painted and flatted that back before primering. I did wonder but obv wasn't sure. Well least I know now
If you used 2k paint without an air fed mask you would know about it... Then again you might not because it could kill you

I know, cyanide fumes. I use celli, what I meant before was the original paint left on from Captain Roscos car coulda been 2pac. Therefore my celli over the old 2pac producing that.

Looking good mate. Paint can be so gay when it comes to reactions. I tried using some cans of lacquer i had in the garage as i couldnt be arsed to get the airlines out, or clean the gun afterwards .
One was a vauxhall can, and one was a halfords can with loads in. Put the halfords stuff on firts, then let it dry for a few mins, then went over the top with the vauxhall stuff. It was then i found out that halfords stuff is acrylic, and the vauxhall must be Celulose... The top layer of lacquer looked like swiss cheese .
If you do come to using 2 pack paint, try and get 1k primer if its available. The stuff ive got is a pain in the arse as you have to measure primer, activator and thinners .
Ah well, got that one side all colourcoded now, and the rear bumper has had a first coat of basecoat colour .
