Anyway i have a 69 nova that i intend to paint this way and what i was wondering is will vinyl graphics stick to rustoleum paint ...
isnt oil based?
The reason i ask is im making a yenko clone and well they have vinyl graphics.





I don't think you will have any problems getting the graphics to stick. BUT you will have to apply the decals BEFORE you get too far along with your waxing

On my daughter's bike, I painted her bike frame using the Tremclad method... and then applied 'flame decals' to the bike and they have adhered beautifully.

On the other hand, after polishing and waxing the McLaren I went an applied the side pin stripes and they couldn't get a good adhesion. I ended up having to go and get some isopronol ( pure alcohol ) and wipe down the area where the stripes were to be applied ( in order to remove the wax ). That removed the wax and shine from that area. Then I laid the stripes on. Once they were in place I then rewaxed and polished that area. The pin stripes stuck beautifully. And I was able to bring that area up to the same level of shine as the rest of the panels.
