Hello all,

I am having a problem with spraying the toll windows..
I cleaned the windows to bare metal, and then used a thinner to wipe any grease off the metal frame parts. Next using an etching primer allowing to dry for several days. Lastly using a black enamel spray. Leaving to dry for several days, i find i can easily scratch the paint right off !!!!. I have spent hours stripping the old paint off, cleaning, etc and i am getting nowhere on this. HELP why is this happening. The paint i am using is indicated to be correct for the task, for use on alum metalwork. The top coat is also correct for the undercoat. The undercoat is sticking with no problem. Once the black enamel is applied it seems to come off a little too easy, along with the black top layer ????

cheers and beers
