WHAT KIND OF PAINT WONT PEEL OFF A WHILE LATER?

0

The technical term is delamination. There are two methods of paint adhesion. Chemical and molecular attraction. Properly prepared surfaces and substrates, and properly applied coatings should have excellent adhesion. Why then, are there so many instances of peeling paint in recent years? The problem seems to be in the quest to meet increasing VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions by using water borne or water based low VOC products. The topcoat should slightly penetrate into the substrate and bite into it with a good chemical adhesion. Unfortunately, this does not seem to be the case when working with incompatible solvents. Notwithstanding all precautions, poor adhesion may result because of faulty product, which happens occasionally. The reps are usually quick to recall it when the problem is discovered, but I remember a few years ago spraying a couple dozen or so that you could peel the clear off in sheets.
