. . . the LusterKote clear lifted the black Rustoleum like paint remover. The black wrinkled and then bubbled up. Turned into a black goo.
. . . I know that Larry did some experimenting with LusterKote and Rustolem and his results were good. . . .

The caveat in my test was the Rustoleum was several years old (from a crashed airplane). Also, I removed all the oil with soap, water, cleaners, and two applications of Prep-Sol.
My guess is that it
won't work, based on your test, with "fresh" Rustoleum. Maybe heat / sun cured, but not practical for a "quickie" project. If two weeks of normal curing isn't enough, then it is not practical, I'd say. I doubt if the difference in results is black vs red, but the difference in aging, don't you think?
Thanks for the heads up! (I haven't done the actual project yet)
