Re: putty vs primer?!
I can't see what your talking about in the pics but it sounds like the putty is shrinking or the primer your using isn't holding back the solvents in the paint your using.

Re: putty vs primer?!
How do you mean chunks are missing? The blurry pic doesn't show anything amiss. Is it simply fisheyes or something like the primer flaking off?

Re: putty vs primer?!
Its hard to tell, whats going in but what may be your problem is ghost lines. The plastics absorbs paint where as the putty doesnt, therefore the plastic expands just enough to see swirls, ghost lines, etc. The putty should be feathered out more, or switch to a different primer.

Something like DuPont variprime, which is a sealer primer. Cobra Colors has some VX primer thats like a sealer primer as well.

Plastic Paddings Sandable primer also works for "removing" ghostlines . And it takes your average touch-up spraycans without trouble!
