Hey, rattle canned and airbrushed my bike this winter, Ill get pics shortly but had one question. Is there any kind of clear coat they make from a rattlecan that can protect the paint if gas spills on it? I spilled a couple drops on my fiddy filling up once and the rattle canned paint just bubbles and lifts up if gas touches it. I got it clear coated and waxed but I was wondering if anyone knows of anything to further protect it.
Thanks

look up the brand of spray paint you used and see if they make a clear.

I know krylon makes a clear

I got clear on it but gas will still eat threw it. I didnt know if there was some kind of clear that is safe from gas spilling on it.

all the clears in rattle cans i used sucked, if you have the means or a buddy have them use automotive clear.

Rattle can clear can work but it take like 20 coats. Better off useing auto clear

careful on auto claer some distort airbrush graphics acrlyics paints but you said you got a coat of clear so initially you should be ok

Ya if you have rattle can clear on there you are probly fucked. If auto clear it will probly lift. be very carefull

I got like 5 coats of rattle can clear on it but if gas touches it it bubbles right up and peels off. O well

don't know about clear but krylon fusion holds up to gas pretty well. It will kinda leave a slight cloudy look when it touches but doesn't peel or bubble, and is hardly noticeable. try that next time if you can't afford to do paint right away... I've never once had good luck with clear out of a can for anything.

thats what i used krylon fusion... it does an alright job of holding up but if i dont wipe it off right away or catch it then it bubbles upl. Im repainting over the winter again next year. I got all this year to f it up.

Use Montana spray paint. I have spilled gas and it has dried up. When I cleaned it up the paint still looked new.
