CMP Hellcat fuel proof?
 
Can anyone tell me if the paint on a CMP Hellcat is fuel proof? If not I'd better get it in gear and make it so. Thanks.

You probably have this issue addressed already but I found it at least needs a clear coat to prevent flaking. I tore off all the covering, glassed and re-painted the entire wing.

Ditto, I tore off all the covering as the paint had flaked off in spots. Glassed and painted. Looks great now.
