So baring it goes through a Russian winter like yours it will have to have a clear coat...not too many dull show birds flying...but that will be a big sigh of relief to seal this paint and not worrying it will flake of in the air!!!!! I will give the tape thing a try...I usually do pull it soon after the paint sets especially epoxy paint...but your advice is well taken with Latex.

I'm sorry that I assumed that you were painting a warbird.
My inquisitive mind wonders why you selected a flat finish for your Sukoi.
