So I've been used to using HOK for all my airbrush needs but wanted to try out the Createx for safety and the wide range of off the shelf colors. I was running a test piece last night and had some issues. No doubt i jacked something up I just don't know what as I haven't had the issue with my solvent based paints before.
Here are the specs
Odd shaped piece with hard edges multiple facets.
Shop temp 80-90 Humidity 60-70
Substrate
KD3000 Epoxy primer cured 48 hours and dry sanded smooth with 400grit
After sanding I blew off the piece with compressed air and then ran a tack rag over it(might be problem 1)
Applied two coats of autobourne white sealer waiting for the the coat to flash dull between coats
30 minutes after last seal coat I laid two stripes of masking tape on the surface after first de tacking them on my shirt.
Sprayed some woodgrain artwork and then removed the tape slowly and back upon itself and on edges and rounded corners I got varying degrees of paint pulling all the way back to the seal coat. So lost adhesion between seal coat and primed base.
Did i not wait long enough?
Should I have ran a rag over the surface with wax and grease remover?
Did i not sand enough?
It was my first pass at createx and liked it but understand I screwed something up
