I washed the parts in soapy water, dried them off, base coated with an acrylic spray and spent a good while painting them. But then when trying to glue the parts together I noticed that the metal on metal contact was causing the paint to chip. We're talking very light contact here.

I glued on one arm and it fell off... the glue didn't fail, the 5 layers of paint did, leaving a nice shiny hole...

So what's the problem? Should I strip all the paint and try washing it again? Reprime with a different brand spay?

Thanks in advance guys]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610680.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610680.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610683.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610683.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610690.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610690.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610693.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610693.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610718.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610718.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610720.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610720.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610723.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610723.page GMT GW 'ard coat -i'm sure there's others out there but i'm too lazy to look for them- and find it gives a good level of protection.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610726.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/233087/610726.page GMT

I personally use car spray paints I get from the local hardware shop, you might want to have a look at that.
