Are you ready to test compatibility of LustreKote and Ultracote? Other threads debate enamel, acrylic lacquer compatibility.

What kind of surface prep are you planning? Scotch brite pads? 1000 paper? 0000 Steel wool? Seems that the surface prep would be pretty time consuming and might compromise your covering job.

Other threads discuss application using "misting" layers of LustreKote over Ultracote which would mean a bunch of coats to provide a typical clear-coat application.

Just curious: do the black trim stripes use head-activated adhesives or typical tacky tape adhesive?
