This sucks

Y is that every time u try to do something cheap. It turns into more more and more money. And lots more time... As u all know I'm repainting the z28 . Was not going to redo the jams and doors. But i said to myself u know since i'm painting I'll just suff them down real fast and paint tham.. NOPE back when i was a dum dum kid (still am) I used spray cans to paint all the jams. And not just one color. First I did black. did not like that I guess than did white. Well what happen as soon as I put some pre clean on there after i suffed?????????? The two layers of rattle can paint lift right off... So now I have to strip the door jams,doors,fenders,hatch. This sucks. That first pic is the hatch jam. Thats what it does with thinner on it.... WHAT A MESS

We reap what we sow,
I have the same situation and I am just going to leave them as is instead of trying to cover them up with rattle spray.
