Paint help

Hi all,

Im new to the forum and wanted to ask for some advice on a particular problem I am having.

I used to paint my models entirely with a brush but have decided to start spraying them for obvious reasons. However, because I have limited time in which I do my modelling, I tend to grab 30 mins here 45mins there etc, I have decided to use Tamiya spray cans instead of an air brush for simplicity.

The problem I have is that the paint keeps lifting when I apply the second coat. It is even worse if I have sanded back a certain area and exposed the plastic below.

Also I occasionally have problems with the paint lifting when I glue something to a painted surface. Am I doing too much pre painting?

I know these may be basic problems but some advice would be really great.

Thanks and I look forward to the reply.

John
