    Did you follow the directions of doing your 2nd coat only 5 min after the first(IIRC)??

    Did you use any kind of adhesion promoter??

    Did you check if it bonded to the grill after your first coat??

    I had the same problem with my grille when I painted the surround. It was very soft and had a different sheen in certain places only , it was very weird. I finally took it off and had a buddy power sand it down past the original clearcoat (mine was painted originally) and then his body shop painted it professionally. I love it now.

    Sorry bro, you gotta start over. My sig is the grille I tried, i need to post a new pic, looks 10x's better!

    Not really, if there's a layer that's not adhering, you gotta go down to that level and bond it properly.
