>> Hi Rick,

>> That IS an interesting thread.

>> I've never had any problems with pinstripes lifting.

>> I don't use "exotic" paints to paint old iron.
>> Mostly, I use Rust-Oleum both on the engine and as the pinstripe.
>> I have, lately, "cleared" my engines and other things I've painted
>> and - I do it with good ol' fashion varnish.

>> I am well pleased with the results.
>> Have had NO problems with lifting - flaking - or fish eye.

>> However - Lately, when using Rust-Oleum rattle cans, I HAVE had problems

>> Usually on the first coat, everything is okay.
>> The SECOND coat is the one doing the damage no matter how lightly I

>>
>> I have also noticed that the "Enamel" in these cans smells remarkably

>> And - it is reacting just as lacquer over enamel would.
>>
>> Just my 2 cents.
