Default Covering help

I have a question that I've seen answered a while back, so please direct me where, or answer this question thats been asked over and over again. I'm using pin striping to make my stripes more defenitive. What do you use to make them less likley to come loose from monokote?

Thanks all

Default RE: Covering help

Some guys use clear nail polish and I've heard that works well. I have used thin CA, which works, but is very easy to make a mess of it. I have also used clear Top-Flite spray paint, but it dulls the shine of the surrounding covering. And lastly, I have covered the entire area with a layer of clear Monokote. This also works, but it shows, and you get little bubbles, etc...

If somebody knows a perfect way to keep stripes down, I hope they reply here...
