More Wrenchin than Ridin
I painted my XSR (as I call it) XS650 with Duplicor factory match spray it went on beautifully, clear coated, let it cure for a week color sanded w/1200 buffed and polished perfect.
The issue is a little gasoline splahed on the paint and softened and ruined the finish. I contacted Duplicolr and was told the paint is lacquer and it is not gas proof. I asked about wheel paint thinking is more durable and he said it enamel and not gas proof. I said cars have been painted with lacquer and enamel since day one and I never heard of gasoline runing the finish. He says that just how it is in other words FY.
Now I have to repaint, but with what?
Has anyone else had issues with their painting? And what did you use that was resistant gasoline?
After seeing Gordonscott's work(my other twin) I'm in serious need for the level of finish
