Default Paint cracking help

So I have a cxt hard body and am having some issues with the paint cracking when I paint it. First time I put paint right over the body and was fine until clear coat. That's when it cracked the paint. It looks like dry skin when I finished. Not all over but some spots. So I then sanded most of the paint off and cleaned it down with alcohol. Time for primer first this time. First coat went on fine but it was very light. Then on to the second one to actually cover it. Once it dried same thing..... cracked paint. What am I doing wrong? I'm using automotive grade paints, primer and clear coat. Any suggestions would be great. Also it is not where the stickers were as I'm sure many may think that's the issue.

That can happen when you apply enamel over lacquer or vise verse.
