Paint Experts! Help! Issue with lacquer finish on cabinets

We have new (2 months old) kitchen cabinets, sprayed with ML Campbell Magnamax in white by a custom cabinet shop. Cabinets are beautiful, expect we are seeing some issues with the finish.

In some areas the paint looks like it is lifting off the face frames and peeling. The picture is sideways but you can see the paint pulling up in the middle of the face frame and at the edge of the cabinet. I could take a soft rag, run it over that and the paint would fall off. Happening in multiple places on our island, maybe something got messed up in the finishing of the one box.

Overall, the paint is very brittle and chips super easily. I expected to have to repaint these in 10-15 years, but they look pretty bad now - after 2 months!

These were sprayed in the humid summer weather and now our weather is much drier.

We have a meeting with the mill shop coming up and want to be prepared.

Any advice is appreciated!
