SET BACK TIME! Oops.. I had a blonde moment. I painted my armor without realising the mold release was still all over it so the paint is all scratch able really bad. Any contact and it scratches off. So the last 2 days I have spent removing paint and trying to get mold release off.
Step 1. (To get the paint off) Oven cleaner. Leave for a while...make food.
Step 2. Scrub with scourer.
Step 3. Washing up liquid and HOT water. Scrub with scourer.
Step 3. Dry.
Step 4. Wipe down with Acetone (on a cloth).
On the left is acetone/washing up liquid, on the right is washing up liquid only.
Step 5. Light primer spray, when dry test if paint comes off with a scourer. Comes off? Repeat above steps. LOL yay.
Optional: So finally after all that I tested out a new product. I found some people use an adhesion promoter. Sprayed that on and it's clear. Then I sprayed primer on and did the scourer test thing. Seems to be good now. I have to wait til tomorrow to try paint again. Cross your fingers, if it doesn't work I give up and will call any scratches battle damage!
Also, found this plastic only contact adhesive. Will give it a go later.
