Looks pretty good to me. Just be careful when fueling. Gas is tough on rattlecan paint.

There's a 2 part clear on the market that I used on my bike. Protects rattle can paint.

oh yea i put 3 coats of clear on everything i painted. the tank has a small leak at the bottom where the tank and seat meet, so the paint is effed there, but everything else looks pretty good. its just to hold me over til i finish the whole bike.

If it wasn't 2 part (2k) clear coat gas and chemicals will ruin it just as easily.

This is what I used, I think there's only one brand out there.

You can get quality paint jobs using aerosol cans like Duplicolor and that clear I just posted. There's a few threads on here about it.

I agree as well. I believe that Eastwood started making their two part in an aerosol can. Basically, if the clear can doesn't have an activator plunger to start mixing the activator and the clear it won't hold up to gasoline drips.
