Default RE: Rustoleum-- Is it really Fuel Proof?

I have used the Rustoleum plain everyday glossy colors with good luck. Also, I have used their Satin colors also with no problems. However, I found that the metallic colors, gold and silver, will turn to goo when exposed to 5% fuel. I have nerver used a clear cote to protect it. As for the camo paint, I haven't tried it, so I have no knowledge of it.

I have used Rustoleum paints on Sig Coverall, Silkspan and Ultracote and they worked very well. On fabrics and silkspan, make sure that you fill the weave / fiber voids with some kind of filler and sand smooth.
