Paint Cracking on xbox Help please

I really need some help, This has never happen to me before.
I had made this design in the xbox, painted it, so on and so forth, it too a whole day. and when i sprayed the finish coat onto it, the whole thing suddenly sprang up with cracks all over it and is pretty much ruining it. I dont know what happened. the only piece that survived was the bottom of the xbox case that only had one color on it . Could it be that its because i finish coated it the first day? the other parts took 2 days and those were the ones that cracked.

I used krylons fusion paints, along with its clear coat, ant the duplicolor adhesion promoter before hand. thank you for your time.

anoter thing....since i will have to start over again. how would i go about removing the paint and clear coat?

Possibly the suface may have been dirty, but deffinately the paint was not dry. You can see vids on cracked paint.

@TheThurston13 actually the pint was dry, usually i work with wet paint butthis time it dried on me cause i took so long to finish it

Ive used it alot on nerf guns mods as well and occasionally it bubbles there might be some reaction I wish I had more info to help you with it may be that you sprayed areas to heavily that canhave and effect as well with fusion

@jaceskunky fudge, well ok thanks for trying i do appreciate it

[jaceskunky]

What type of paint are you using?

that can have an effect as well

[Drakesapphire]

@jaceskunky Krylon fusion, Its meant for this , and ive used it numerous times. this is the first time its happened

I'm way past helping you, because this is a year old. But I have the same exact problem sometimes!! I'm going to say it was the temperature. It says make the the air temp and surface temp are both, above 50 degrees and below 90 degrees. Every time it had messed up and cracked, the temperature played a HUGE factor in ruining them. Also, they recommend less than 85% humidity. I'd go alot lower than that. Invest in a thermometer!

[hehasagunah]

there are some variables that could make that happen the temperature can drastically effect paint setting making it crack. the second would be the paint there are many different things like quality of the paint but what i use for plastic is a special one that bonds to plastic works well and was one sale ^_^ finally the density of the paint if to much is applied to some points when the paint thins it can end up having to much in one area and it will crack then love the fursuit XD hope i helped

I'm no expert at this, but its somethin'

Could it be from the system and/or controller use in the past that could effect the material and paint?

@jaceskunky oh, also it wasnt bubbles from the can, the paint under the clear coat cracked up.
