Hi Jon.

Shell was painted using liquid mask
Shell was not cut out
I painted the chrome first - no problems with adhesion to shell
Other colours then painted, so chrome was under a couple of other colours - mainly black.
Final coat of paint to shell was all white.

Paints are Aerosol - Faskcolour (think that's how it's spelt)

No tape or backing (can't recall if I plasticoted it as this was before I started using plasticote)

The chrome hasn't come off - the paint 'backing' the chrome has come away.
It's like it hadn't adhered to the chrome - not had this happen before.

Shell was run is very,very wet conditions apparently.
