Why all the hassle about which hardware store paint is fuel proof and which color is fuel proof? Why not use fuel proof hobby paint from the start? At the very least, why not clear coat with a "Known" fuel proof paint?

Nelson hobby paint is WATER BASED, fuel proof to 40% with the cross linker, applies with a foam brush and is available in Monokote matching colors. Seems like a "No Brainer" to me. I posted a review of the product on the other RC website for RC groups.

Hardware store paint is not intended for our use, the manufacturer can change the formula at any time without warning, causing disaster for our models. Is it really worth saving a few bucks?
