I recently did a civilian plane in solartex. Nice stuff but I used white and just leaning it against a wall before painting it got dirty! I shot automotive lacquer mainly because I liked the color. It required many coats to get the color on the top of the can and was NOT fuel proof. After experimenting with several clears I finally sprayed it with TopFlite Lustrekote. Lustrekote has a bad reputation, probably deserved. My experience was that the paint was quite good. I used both gloss and semigloss and was impressed with the consistency of shine. However the can, or more specifically the cheap nozzle, was the thing that caused the problems. If you decant into a cup it would give better control and probably work better. It was fuelproof, just not foolproof.
