1. Probable Cause / Reason
• Uneven solvent evaporation during drying, causing surface tension changes.
• Temperature differences on the painted surface creating pigment movement.
• Poor mixing or settling of pigments in multi-pigmented or metallic paints.
• Weak epoxy cross-linking, leading to hairline patterns or surface cracking.
2. Correction
• Sand and recoat the affected area to remove visible patterns or cracks.
• Use controlled drying conditions to avoid uneven solvent evaporation.
• Mix paint thoroughly before and during application.
• Reapply with proper film thickness and surface temperature control.
3. Corrective Action / Prevention
• Apply paint under stable temperature and humidity conditions.
• Use well-formulated paints with proper pigment dispersion and epoxy strength.
• Avoid rapid drying by controlling airflow, temperature, and solvent blend.
