Default RE: Cheaper clear coating found

I did a paint patch yesterday to test the Drylon "Fusion" paint. I put on 4 coats, waited one hour and coated with 4 coats of the Krylon Crystal Clear Satin.

This morning I ironed on a pc. of UltraCote to see how it would handle temperature. At 300 degrees the paint will come off on the iron if you tarry. At 250 degrees I ironed on another pc. of UltraCote and had no problems at all. The ultraCote sticks great and the paint did not get soft. Next I tried a pc. of self-adhesive UltraCote striping and it really sticks to the paint good.

Keep in mind this is less than 24 hours ago, so it has not really had any time to cure. And that's apply the base color and then clear Coating in a matter of 1 1/5 hours.

Next, I am going to run the test patch with Acetone and see what happens. Then I am going to pour 20% Cool Power on it and let is stand.
