My kit was started by another builder who painted some of the interior panels already. I am painting the interior with Krylon and although the job isn't going to win any awards, I like the way it's turning out so far on the bare aluminum (scuff with marroon scotchbrite pads, clean with MEK, dupont veriprime rattle can primer, then krylon rattle can paint). I'm changing the color scheme and have just started painting over the previously painted parts--again I scuffed the paint with scotchbrite, then cleaned the surface with soap and water, then paint--no primer. Overall on most panels it has turned out fine, but on a few spots I got some orange peel--looks like the krylon has eaten through the other paint.
I'd prefer not to strip everything down and start over but wondering if this is a normal reaction sometimes between paints, if I didn't prep well enough in some areas, or if there is a technique when painting over already painted surfaces that I'm missing?
Thanks for any advice.
