Post by: johnieG on March 12, 2007, 11:29:40 pm If it's a water-release decal it should handle the clear coat well, but some vinyl cheap (thin) decals can react with the urethane enamel & soften & blister...now that I scared you , "I just wanted to say good luck & we're all counting on you" ...(Airplane)

Post by: johnieG on March 12, 2007, 11:35:43 pm Oh & while we're on the subject of clear coats, note that rustoleum's hammertone paint & clear coat don't mix! ( bad personal experience!) the part of the hammer tone that forms the "texture" softens & lifts right out of the base coat & wrinkles like a moldy orange skin! what a mess!
I'm glad I tested it on a coinbox first & not the whole liner! Title: Decals under clear coat or on top? Post by: sodaworks on March 13, 2007, 10:11:05 am My experience with rustoleum products are they do not mix with "any" other brand of clear coats. I too founf=d this out the hard way a couple of times. The only rustoleum product that I use is Hammertone.
Title: Decals under clear coat or on top? Post by: bcharlton on April 07, 2007, 12:23:38 pm Water release, under, vinyl, over. I went with 4 coates of clear on my Cavalier 96 and you can not even feel the decals under the clear. Thats my reccomendation.
