The first coat is most important, it gives the additional coats something to bind too. Flourescent yellow seems like the worst offender. I can't comment on the whole Proline thing, the only one I have is the kit body for my RB4.1.
Ye, I warmed up the body, the can, soap'd and washed, rinsed for'ever' and the Black and blue on the body both peel right off. But my stocker, RC8, Wraith, and other Proline bodies, no issue for years. Just this one was a catastrophe. /shrug

That's life, no complaints, just a bummer.
