Mr DeeBeez Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 I spray a clear coat, or enamel over it once it's all painted. Gives some more protection, and makes it look really glossy too.

Mr DeeBeez Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 I don't have any experience with oil based. But I used ace premium spray paint, then ace premium clear enamel over the top. Here's a pic of the finished product. Fi Team 18's (4) Crossfire 16k Crossfire 400.4 & 800.4 Pioneer AVH-X491bhs 140ah cmax CES 320's (2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
