1. Probable Cause / Reason:
•    Stress-related failure due to surface movement or changes.
•    Aging of the coating, absorption, and desorption of moisture.
•    Lack of flexibility in the coating, leading to brittleness.
•    Thicker paint films have a higher risk of cracking under stress.

2. Correction:
•    Use appropriate coating systems with better flexibility.
•    Ensure proper application techniques and control dry-film thickness.
•    Apply coatings in multiple thinner layers instead of one thick coat.
•    Address environmental factors like moisture or temperature changes during application.

3. Corrective Action / Prevention:
•    Remove the cracked paint film and inspect the underlying substrate.
•    Reapply a more flexible coating system to avoid future cracking.
•    Regularly inspect and maintain the coating to monitor for early signs of stress.
