yeah, i'm thinking it's more than just the sealer. most sealers are just extra paint that they have around from other jobs, mostly white, but can be any color as long as it contrasts the final color. i'm thinking maybe your car wasn't sanded thoroughly. in addition to the chemical bond that paint systems offer, PPG is just one, nothing can beat the mechanical bond that a good sanding can give. if the old paint wasn't scuffed properly, or the primer was sanded with too fine a grit, well, i think you get the idea. basically, i think blaming it on the sealer is kind of a cop out, but if you respect your new boss' opinion, then i won't argue with it. it just might be that the sealer wasn't part of PPG's system. but for a guy to claim to be a corvette specialist, i think he should be hanging his head in shame over your paint job.
