Sorry WetDog, but I have to chuckle, just a little bit. I truly do feel your pain though, and I'm really sorry to hear this happened to your project.
Years ago my ole Lady was a painting contractor and then I made a bad decision to help out and went to work for her. My main task was to help supervise but things were going crazy so that lead to another daily task, painting front metal doors with Alkyd, staining, sealing and then varnishing wood and fiberglass front doors. Those and other small spraying jobs like signs and wrought iron fences around the model homes. There wasn't a day where things went without a hitch or a big disappointment. One year we painted 4 new Walmarts and a JC Penny's and these buildings were all out to town. I drove 2 hours to a Walmart just to spray the exterior doors and jambs. Got all the doors prepped and masked off and by that time it warmed up pretty good. Starting spraying and went from one end of the building to other. After the painting was done and tools all cleaned up, I walked around to the first door sprayed to pull the masking. The door was completely covered with some kind of flying hard shelled beetle, they were stuck to the paint and crawled all over the door leaving trails. This happened to every door, so all had to be sanded and repainted. Fun stuff!
