lae, it's likely due to the health and safety law that the original enamel paint were harmful, of which is now weaker.
in the past they were quite strong, almost as strong as powdercoat, but nowadays they chipped easily.
Yeah old enamel is incredibly tough. I don't wanna powdercoat my frame though. I don't know what the toughness of 2-pack acrylic is compared to modern enamel but it's pretty bloody tough too.
I get what you're both saying about bias towards negative feedback, I hadn't thought about it like that. Still, not paying £300 for a paint job on a £150 frame like, but I guess it's not as bad as I'd thought.
