I cannot answer your question but am concerned that this might be the same
thing that happened many years ago when I painted an FA-FB-FA set. In my
case, I had stripped shells that had originally been Great Northern. The
crazing occurred as a result of the stripping (I do not remember if I used
brake fluid or one of the bottles for removing paint from models.
The crazing was only on a small portion of the roof and was shaped much
like an arrow on all three units. Although I am not a rivet-counter, I was
not satisfied with the appearance and was able to buy replacement shells
several years later. In stripping the replacement units, and repainting, I
did
not experience this crazing.

I tried my hand at painting a undecorated AM GP35 and ran into a problem.
The
primer coat went on without a problem. However, the main coat, while going
on
smoothly, dried leaving a kind of crazed coat. I believe that I forgot to
thoroughly wash the model before painting it, but the primer coat showed
no
problem. My question: Can I paint over the the bad surface or do I have to
try
to remove all the paint and start over (ugh)? Thanks.
