Interesting reading and nice looking work. I'm not a resto guy but know that on a car to be DRIVEN that paint will be "road grit blasted" off in days. I powdercoated all my frt suspension the cast iron color and it's held up to to years of near daily driving in good weather. I even powdercaoted the T bars.
Powder coating then spraying over with the Battery Protector sounds like a good plan.
Man you guys and your paint dabs  Just kidding. Looks spectacular.
You'd be suprised at just how well the painting route holds up....This is one of the first "all paint" suspensions I did years ago....No powdercoating...I've since perfected it way beyond that process....Better tones and more durable...This is a pic from last summer with 4000 street miles on it..

What's the point of "floating" paint on water to dip? Why not dip the part right into the paint ???
First, you don't need as much paint to initially get started with coating the container etc and then to keep the process going... And secondly clean-up is much easier...And lastely,some parts are just to big to dip into a can of paint...
