So I want to buy paint and spraypaint my frame/fork/whatever.
Now I knew I could get Duponts lineup of products fairly easy so I checked out their site and its a total ****ing jungle!
But somehow I noticed they have these nice candys/metallics/pearls and stuff and chromalusion, so I want to use those. However I found out when talking to the place that sell these that these are all acrylics. Acrylics to me = not very durable.
Are these infact durable enough for commuter bike (and it rains here too, a lot, and snows, a lot)?
My instinct tells me to go with an epoxy primer and polyurethanes as everything else. I painted my oak table with one component poly, like 10-15 layers and it has been very very durable, so I have a feel for the durability of polyurethane and i like it.
So what are the options if I want nice and exclusive yet durable?
Is there any polyurethane that provides Candy/flake/pearl or similar to be had?
Anyone that have sprayed anything lately and ridden the results (good or bad experience don't matter).
