Before this , I painted my interior Silver with clearcoat. IT worked out fine and it did not scratch easily.

This time around, I am painting it back to matt black.

I have gone ahead and done it , 400grit ->600grit -> 3 coats Duplicolor Adhesion promoter(primer) -> 3-4coats VHT Enamel interior/exterior paint.

I have left it overnight(12hours~) and it seems that the paint scratches off easily. I do not remember it being that easy last time. Was it the clearcoat that helped? This time around I am going for Matt Black therefore a clearcoat is out of the question..

Should I spray more layers today and let it dry again?

Can't find any matt clearcoat around here. Does the clearcoat really help?

Well since I already have 3 layers on there, you are saying I should paint another couple of layer and then let it dry fully again confused.gif

What grit sandpaper before I paint now, dont want to take off much of the old paint. 1200?
