Default Krylon Paint


Have a Nosen Champ with gas engine that is covered Super Coverite and painted with Krylon.
Want to change to glow engine and need to know what type or brand of clear coat that will go over the Krylon to make it fuel proof.
Thanks

If you want a clear coat that is not going to yellow, use a WATER BASE polyurethane.

My experience with water base poly is that it is definitely good to 10% nitro (all I use) and various reports indicate no problems with 15% nitro. Water base poly will not yellow with age and the poly is compatible with just about everything.
