if the leather is prepared right, by cleaning and acetone you should be good to go. But at the same time it depends on what material you are painting. I've never had a problem with the paint cracking and I've put it through the ultimate test.

i've never customized a midsole on a Air Max sorry about that. But I have done jordan 4s and have yet to have a problem. I have customized the jordan 4 and also restored some jordan 3s. I know if the paint is cracking from that park of the shoe its mainly because the shoe wasn't prepared fully with acetone, which means the paint that was originally on the sole has not been wiped away just yet. Have you added anything to the paint?
