Peeling, Cracking
Failure of coating to properly adhere to surface.

Alligatoring
Patterned cracking in the paint film resembling the scales of an alligator.

Blistering
Bubbles caused from a loss of adhesion and lifting of the paint film from the underlying surface.

Adhesion (Blocking)
Undesirable adhesion between two painted surfaces or between paint and weather stripping.

Cracking
The splitting of a dry paint film through at least one coat.

Caulk Failure
Loss of caulk's initial adhesion and flexibility causing painted caulk to crack and/or pull away.

Caulk - Paint Cracking or Crawling
The cracking of the paint film over a caulked area.

Flaking
Paint lifting from the underlying surface in the form of flakes.

Mudcracking
Deep, irregular cracks resembling dried mud in the dry paint film.

Peeling - Concrete Floors
Flaking and peeling of a coating applied to concrete flooring.

Peeling - Due to Moisture (Inside)
Loss of adhesion of the interior paint caused by high levels of moisture.

Peeling - Due to Moisture (Outside)
Loss of adhesion of exterior paint, usually exposing the bare surface.

Peeling - From Galvanized Metal
Paint fails to adhere to galvanized metal.

Peeling - Intercoat Peeling in Protected Areas
Loss of adhesion of a coating under eaves, porches, or other protected areas.

Peeling - Plaster
Loss of coating's adhesion to plaster surface in spots or larger areas.

Peeling - Under Eaves
Loss of adhesion of a coating applied to exterior protected areas (under eaves, porches, etc.).

Peeling - Over Hard,Slick Surfaces
Lack of adhesion of a coating, exposing the surface that was painted.

Cracking - Plywood Checking
Thin, long, and relatively straight cracks that form in the paint film, usually in the direction of the plywood grain.

Cracking - Stained Rough-Strewn Siding
Thin, long, relatively straight cracks running in a singular direction on a previously stained wood surface.
