yeah it will be strong enough. when i got mine done they said they lacquer won't really improve durability (which is boom) it just makes it easier to clean and more glossy

I have just got a frame back from armourtex in a satin deep blue/grey i didnt get it lacquered because i wanted to pick out the lugs.

What paint should i use?

and then what laquer should i use.

I spoke to armourtex and they said use a polyurethane based paint and lacquer but all polyurethane based stuff seems to be for wood, any one done this before or have any hints?

No. Nobody else has ever faced this perilous predicament.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
