Since I was posting this on my 63 Corvette build, I thought I would throw it on here also.  Hopefully the lighting is a little better on this post.  This is another set of headers and the lower trim on the Corvette (brushed on with the original brush after i crammed it back on).

Thanks for posting these trials, Ron. This stuff looks quite promising, for sure.

One thing I will be interested in is seeing how well the stuff lasts in the bottle (shelf life). Only time will tell, of course.

It says 36 months shelf life on the package.

Thanks Ron. Pretty good that they are willing to stand behind it for three years. That sounds better than Molotow, my pens having gone shiny grey after little more than a year.

Does anyone know what will clean a brush?  Just ordered some of this and I'll need to apply it with a very small brush to detail HO slot cars.  Brush in cap is WAY too big.

As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, my brush that I used cleaned up fine with 91% isopropyl alcohol.

One quick note:  After a particularly thick coating on one piece, 2 days later it was still a bit sticky to the touch.  Upon reading the instructions (yeah, I know, it’s always the last thing to do), it recommends putting the clear on after 72 hours.  From now on, I will wait for 3 days drying time if the piece needs to be manhandled.
