The flexibility of Two pack paints can be increased by using a plasticizer, as you might expect you use quite a lot of this if you if you Paint a fabric covered wing and a bit less for the plywood structure.

I would think that with the way metal aircraft flex in some parts of the structure a little plasticizer would help but I am not an expert on painting metal aircraft......I leave that to Mick Allan.
