Thank you!
I think I am just gonna give my daughter a screw driver and a hammer and have her explore durability of the paint ;)
But I am also pretty committed to painting the MTB and just see what happens. Worst case I get it blasted and powder coated next summer. Paint was free anyways.
I helped my mate do some modifications to his Trek years ago and we removed a lot of paint. He has been riding the exposed parts just covered in cold pressed linseed oil. He oils it every spring and it's been solid for eight years now. So I am positive that this linseed oil paint will be fine with if maintained.

Very cool. Can you use a plumb Bob from a given height to simulate small impacts?
Easy way to do a quick check of impact durability vs conventional paint maybe.
Haven’t commented on this thread before but I just wanted to say it’s really an inspiration
