Second coat of paint fail

[Colin]

I was painting my FOTK with the recommended spray paint and gave one of the bicep pieces a second coat after sanding it but it's still cracking and not adhering correctly. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to salvage this piece?

Not sure what recommended paint you have used but many paints need to be completely dry before applying another coat. Also wash everything in warm soapy water to get any grease or finger prints off. Did you scuff the surfaces first with sandpaper, this allows the paint to grip better, I normally will go over with 600 prior to adding primer, which leads me to the next question are you spraying directly onto the base or have you added a primer first?
