A different point of view -- this is the process that Roundhouse Engineering
has used very successfully on it's production models for several years. I'm
not sure of the specifics but it is a two-part application "baked" at a
temperature which exceeds those found in the normal use of our steamers. It
is also the reason you can't buy "touch up paint" to match.
