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?

Clearcoat is what prevents scratching and flaking. Give it one more spray of the matte black and go buy some matte clear finish and put a few coats of that on.
