clear plasticoat is good aswell, B and Q  or homebase, i did my mates forks in matt black, but we decided to clear coat gloss. they looked sweet,  :4_17_5:

Thanks for those tips, I laquered my cyclecraft frame and have started wet and drying it, it's going really well then I went over the sanded down dull laquer with the rough side of a kitchen scourer, then polish vigourously with an old t shirt until the whole coat is even in colour, I use an area that I have missed with the sandpaper, like the weld where the toptube meets the seat tube as a guide for how intense the colour and shine should be. Next I'm gonna try the car polish thing, just wondering if this is ok to do before adding decals? will they stick if theres any wax in the product,?
Cheers
