Ok, on painting the maltese crosses and stuff, I'm ok with rust oleum rattle cans and wait a week before minwax?
Rustoleum seems to take some time to dry. Set your model in the sun for a few hours, on a couple different days. Sun light does wonders for curing paint.
Minwax? If you are talking about Minwax Polycrilic, I have not found it to be fuel proof. For a clear coat, I'd go with Warbirdcolors or Nelson's.
Here's a pic of my Solartex covered Sig Spacewalker II. It's painted with Nelson Paints.
