Hi,
My panniers had enough scuffs and scrapes, and the clear coat had worn away trying to remove the scuffs that I thought I would order some paint, primer, and rattle can it myself. I ordered the paint from automotivetouchup.com, using the paint code on the bike and prepped the pannier with sand paper and primed it according to directions on the can.After waiting the amount of time written, I lightly sanded with 600 grit sand paper, and shot it with color. The color looked a little off, but I decided go ahead and finish it. Anyway, after an hour, I noticed it spider cracking in places. It was a humid, overcast day, about 75-80 degrees.
After letting it sit overnight, I decided to look at the cracking, and underneath the base coat, it was gooey. I wound up using a putty knife to scrape the area and the black plastic was exposed in places.
What do I do now? Is the paint and primer wrong for this application?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
