Elecraft Paint

George
Is there a good paint that is legal out there. Even the powder coated stuff
 here does not hold up very good. My PFR-3 was the best ever. It took a
real  beating and still looked new. The environmental people make it tough to
make  really good paints. That's my opinion. 73  George/W2BPI

Don't know if this would work.  But noticed the outside doors on our new
home seem to be painted with some really tough stuff.  Asked the
contractor what he had used and was told he had taken the doors to an
auto body repair shop in town and had them finished with auto body paint
and finish.  They may know something we don't.

Happy New Years to all.

Most bicycles are now powder coated.  Seems to be tough stuff.
