Only thing I found is the red tends to come off on the towel when cleaning up. It also came out really light compared to the Chipmunk I covered in dress liner and rustoleum. I think that one, since I have to do some covering repairs, I may strip it and ultracote it.
Which type of final coat of red is coming off on the towel with cleaning up? Are you using something like Windex to clean up with? Glow fuel or gasoline or a mix? Does "light compared to the Chipmunk" refer to color or weight? If you hate plastic, why are you going to use ultracote? These are genuine questions I am curious about, not flippant remarks. Thanks for your comments.
