rustoleum over burtyrate

[paulwells66]

I know this has probably been discussed a bunch but I can't seem to find info on this combo.  rustoleum (just a stripe) over clear butyrate

[Mike Alimov]

Should be ok as long as butyrate has had a couple of weeks to gas off.

I have done plenty over Nitrate with no problems.  Don't see why it wouldn't work with Butyrate.

If the stripe is anywhere near the exhaust flow Rustoleum will get sticky.

Paul,
The Rustoleum will go over butyrate just fine as long as it is gassed off at least several days and has no smell. One  thing with the Rustoleum, spray it on in light coats hold the can about 12" off the surface, do a dust coat let sit 3 - 5 minutes then do another to fill in. If still not full coverage wait 5 minutes to do another light coat. Rustoleum will fuzz up if it goes on to thick. If it does fuzz up, let it dry three days. Sand it down first with 220 paper then finish with 400. Make sure you tack rag off all the dust, then start again. If after these coats you think you need more wait three days before repeating for more coverage. I have always gotten full coverage by the second light coat

Once you start with Rustoleum you are committed as you cannot apply any type of dope or acrylic lacquer (Primer, Krylon, LusterKote) over the Rustoleum, I tried it does not stick an crazies as it dries and shrinks.

Best,   DennisT
