I've been following this thread off and on for about a year now. I'd like to try this method, but a bad experience with Krylon (with polyurethane added) is causing me to hesitate. The Krylon sprayed on quite well and looked nice for a short time, but after just a few months it began to peel and yellow. I used Rustoleum primer,(couldn't find Krylon primer) which may have been part of my problem. I also think maybe the polyurethane may have added to my woes.
Somebody please tell me that I screwed up on the Krylon and that this Rustoleum route will work.


krylon doesn't work great for vehicles because it doesn't stand up to gasoline well at all. i use krylon on a gas tank of a motorcycle and the first time it got gas on it there was a huge streak of milky white clear coat. i haven't really gotten too far into the rustoleum thing but i'm assuming after all of this that rustoleum and brightside are at least resistant to gasoline.
