anyone else have issues with the paint not being applied smoothly? The paint collects on a smooth surface and results in a bumpy finish.

Yes, I agree. That was my disappointment with the product and why I returned it after I used it once.

It has a very fine almost plastic/laminate like finish. It would be best to ask at your local paint store which product will work best. My recommendation would be to rough the finish up with a fine sandpaper, clean the dust off, then use a good primer before painting it. I have tried painting similar products with an all in one primer/paint and had really poor results (weak adhesion), hence the separate primer suggestion.

Mine had a hard time staying on so I used a rubber squeegee to smooth it out, when I moved it again very tiny amounts of paint stuck to it since my wall has a rough texture. I don't think any paint would've come off if I didn't scrape a squeegee across it to make it stick better.

The metallics take a bit longer than the flat and gloss finishes in my experience. You can thin it for better results, but using thinner coats of it straight from the bottle may work for you as well, depending on your painting technique (hand painted Vs. airbrush, etc.) Try thinner coats applied to the plastic model and doing multiple coats where applicable, first. If that doesn't/already isn't working, then try thinning it out progressively. You can practice on plastic spoons/knives to get your method down without running any potential risk with your model pieces.

Maybe you've got a defective one. I think you can return that? my only question is " how come the one I've got, the paint are fading and cracking"?... I hope the Lenmar & Amazon can fixed these!... thanks...

The product description says work well on smooth surface. I guess it is not perfect on a painted metal surface. However you may try. I think you may want to try painting instead of using permanent decals in your case. Good luck.

Use the smaller nozzle and lower the pressure and it lays a smooth coat. I haven't been able to add two colors together yet but I'm working on it. hopes this helps

I have been spraying with fixative. When dry I coat with acrylic medium. i think that should do the trick. I may just test it and get back to you.

I cannot talk about ALL paints, but, I ordered a couple of their products and my friends also ordered some. We've had no issue with them yet... The seller was also pretty nice and responded all my questions. It may be better to ask them about your concern.

I do not know about that surface, it sounds like it is not smooth. The material used does not have a sticky backing...it is static cling. Mine was applied to a painted surfaces.

I used the Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch 2X Ultra Cover (Paint+Primer). Scuffed lightly with 220 grit (knock down the ridge from the molding line if necessary), started with a light coat, let it dry well (2hrs) and followed with 2 medium coats. Looks ok for me.

I'm going to be of no help here, but I'll give it a shot. It pulled the paint right off in the living room where I used flat wall paint. In the kitchen I have a semi gloss and it did not take off the paint. This could also be the cheapness of one paint or the other, or the amount of humidity or dryness in the rooms. Best I can do. Good luck.

yes. A friend of mine painted his and it looked good and worked fine. One advice is not to give it too many coats of paint .

Yes the paint has to be mixed. That wasn't a problem for me. I just mixed the second color a little less than the first color and it turned out good.

Did you continuously stir the paint as you applied it? Any magnet should be sticking to it but the earth magnets work really well :-)

Use a spray varnish, one that comes in aerosel form. It seems like the varnish re hydrates the paint, making said paint wet and then it bleeds. Maybe try an acrylic sealer before applying the varnish????
