Hey Campgems, go to the local fleamarket. You can probably find a guy there that does t-shirts. There's a local guy at our fleamarket that will do stuff like that. Most of that type of paint is NOT fuel-proof. However, all ya have to do is clearcoat it it with fuelproof paint.
I've tried twice to ''fuelproof'' with a fuel proof clear, that last was with clear monokote paint. both attempts were dismell failures, The clear coat attacked the base and things puckered and went bad from there. Lots and lots of sanding, back down to the base and starting over. I like the idea of the Dupont automitve paint. Sure wish we could go to the auto stroe and buy the bug bombs again to match the auto paint I wanted.
I hadn't thought of custom motorcycle shop, I've got one right down the road from me. I'll have to stop in and get an idea of what they can do for me. Of course most of those guys like 25 coats of paint and it might end up a tad on the heavy side. Worth investigating though.

The catalized Automotive clears are a totally different material than a spray bomb clear. The underlining paint does not have to be fuel proof.
