Not much you can do. Most of the car is NOT painted with flex paint and is prone to cracking.

Heat Gun

Do some more research on how to properly roll fenders.

Also, what are you using to roll them?

The paint should be properly heated at all times to avoid cracking.

I used the heat gun, i evenly distrusted the heat before every roll. The tool i used was the fender rolling tool that bolts up the hub.

I'm wondering is there a spray or anything that i can put on my paint to prevent from further cracking??? Wax? Bonbo? anything??

Are the cracks on the outside, inside or just on the fold?

^ I have that problem as well on my fenders. The paint has been cracked underneath where the fold is for like 2 years now. Its no big deal. It hasn't cracked any further or spread. I wouldn't worry to much.
