Default New Krylon Spray Paint - Don't Bake It??

The new breed of Krylon Spray paint - remember how it was 25 years ago,
all thin and runny but fast drying?? Well, I put some on a transformer
end bell(metal content) which was primed and baked @225F for ~1.5 hrs
and then air cooled a while, and then baked the nice RED Krylon coat.

It came out with nice tiny tiny bubble marks on a large part of it.

Not sure if it was outgassing from the primer making its way up
(automotive "sanding primer", grey) or if this is what the new Krylon
does?? Anyone got experience with this?

Btw, the "paint" appears to be a self leveling plastic thing - the
finish is fairly amazing in that regard, and the final product feels
"plasticy" imho. Cool stuff in that it's not "paint" that i can see.

PS. just resanded the bubbles and recoated - air dry this time.
