I used Martin Senour CP400 epoxy which adhered very well to the base metal and any remaining old paint underneath. I then sprayed CP440 high build 2K, waiting about an hour after spraying the epoxy. The epoxy tech sheet says the epoxy can be top coated in 30 minutes.
The 2k cured beautifully. But I am having adhesion problems between the 2k and the epoxy. It is peeling off in places very easily, even blowing off in some. And where it comes off, I can smell the epoxy reducer I think.
So I am thinking the 2K cured and sealed in the epoxy and didn't let the solvent evaporate, hence the separation? Does 2K do that? I thought the 2K would allow the solvents to breath out.
Now am afraid to put the 2K over the epoxy? How long should I wait to do it again, and I guess I will be sanding the epoxy before I do?
Any ideas?
