I recently built a lovely set of doors for the wife's new shed and of course, being a big Dr Who fan, they had to sesemble a TARDIS!
So after slaving away for some considerable time, I painted them in the obligatory Oxford Blue, and being as they are clearly for outdoor use, used Dulux Weathershield primer and top coat.
Now these were painted in near ideal conditions in my (then) heated workshop, leaving at least 24 hours between coats, before finally installing the about 2 months ago.
So here we are, a couple of months later and yes, I knopw we've had some cold, rain and snow, but surely the paint shouldn't be splitting and lifting all over the place should it?
Anyone else had issues?
Oops, that was close, nearly forgot the pictures.

So what am I doing wrong?
