Yes sir! On the horrifying organ blower job I mentioned earlier, & stripped
the blower cabinet inside & out, primed with Rustoleum primer, & topcoated
with Rustoeum Industrial. Exactly what you described happened, & I cussed
probably more than you since it was stoop & bang your head labor. There was
a failure of adhesion between primer & metal, & so when the topcoat stuck to
the primer it pulled up both layers.
My assumption was that it might have been a temperature problem (it was in a
cool-ish area beneath a theater). So I stripped it again, & during the
application & drying of primer & topcoats ran a standard resistance room
heater to keep the temp up in the too-warm spring day region. The second
time I used the "regular" Rustoleum topcoat (not Industrial) also, and
adhesion was satisfactory.
Original message:
======================
For years I have used Rustoleum enamel, largely because it seems fairly
durable and is readily available, and fairly inexpensive. Most of the time
it goes on fine, whether from aerosol or brush, even thinned and sprayed
with a gun. However, sometimes after starting with Rusty Metal primer, the
topcoats ( usually the 2nd) seem to react with the preceding layers to cause
the whole refinishing effort to wrinkle up and look more like 'Krinkle
Finish' than gloss black.
