These parts are flexible and flexible parts need flexible paint, painting this material is not easy as the paint has to adhere to the surface. Proper preparation, primer and the correct paint would have been better.
The material needs to cure properly and if they are not cured that may lead to trouble as well.
Sadly we got the hi-res photos finally but they came from an unhappy customer.
