Acrylic Lacquer painted outside in our Winter, av. temp. 16C.
Used the excess Por15 from inside the tank to do underside of welded guard, it's a 44 gal drum. Beefed up the strut holes with fibreglass bog and a strip of t-shirt soaked in the Por15.
Oil tank is 2 gas bottles welded together.
Biggest trouble was the outline, no reply when I asked so I taped off the line on 2 different levels where the blue flake meets the black and the maroon line would sink, next time I'll blow enough clear to cover so as to make a flat surface for the outline.
After each colour I would clearcoat which came in handy when I had to remove and redo a flame stuffup.
Anyway I'm happy for my first custom job, I learned a lot from this forum so thanks heaps guys.
