I spoke to xfactor on here. He thinks tamiya changed their paint to remove the lead in it and it's never been as good since. He may have a point. Other theories are there is too much thinners in it. Either way it seems florescent colours are the issue mainly. That said the other day I noticed a bodyshell I did some time ago in plain white had just started to flake. It's only very very slightly but it is there. I try to prep as well as I can but it is what it is. I buy core RC now and it's much better. Less coates and much better coverage.
