My favorite destroyed paint jobs are alligatored paints. Not because I like alligators but because I like crocodiles. And so far, I haven’t heard of any paint jobs that have been crocodiled. Which is weird, considering they both look like father and baby copies of each other.
Alligatored paint is a term used to refer to wrinkled paint jobs. There are many reasons for wrinkles but mostly, the reason is the same as the reason people get wrinkles: they get old. It’s not like your balls which are just wrinkled by default. When you want to fix alligatored areas of your paint job, just remove it with a regular scraper. If it leaves holes or craters, fill it with a spacking compound. When it dries, apply similar-colored paint over.
Alligator gone.
