Paint won't stick to the smooth chromed plastic texture, I assume you sanded off the chrome finish.. then used some sort of adhesion promoter, a flexible plastic primer, then your color/clear? That would be the way to paint plastic parts.saved me some typing....
There are some paints that say they will bond to plastic without primers or adhesion promoters, but I'd still rather do it properly and have it last.

Sanding is the paints staying power... to many people neglect the prep.
