Cracks in Lister Painting, by Replete on Aug 23, 2008 22:50:22 GMT 1, thats cracking within the spraypaint he's used. This is usally caused by differing drying times of the spraypaint often when using different brands of paint together as the solvent within evaporates at different rates. Too much spraypaint applied to a surface can also can cause this as again the sovents cant evaporate quickly and evenly.
Also it can be caused by the priming medium used as temperature /moisture changes causes the tightness of the canvas to change and if a medium such as emulsion is used it's far less flexible than something like latex or acrylics so more prone to crack formation.

That's what I was going to say

If that's the case, what can be done if anything?

Cracks in Lister Painting, by Replete on Aug 23, 2008 23:47:36 GMT 1, it can be repaired through various methods but if done by someone not skilled in dealing with this type of repair theres a large chance of causing a lot more damage in the process as the spraypaint needs to be removed and reapplied to fix it. Putting more paint over the top will likely result in the cracks reappearing like building on dodgy foundations.
I think you're better off leaving it as it's only minor cosmetic and in some ways adds character to the piece. I'd be careful not to expose it to furhter dramatic heat changes in order to avoid further cracking.

Cracks in Lister Painting, by Replete on Aug 23, 2008 23:53:49 GMT 1, dunno. I doubt many people have seen it as they'll all be away for bank holiday or down at cans. Probably have to wait to next week to find out. Anyhoo it's off topic lets say no more about it here mate.
