I think I have found an awesome alternative to baked on case paint!
It's called Appliance epoxy. Its the stuff they use to paint fridges and range ovens like in your house. 3 coats is extremely chip and grease/oil resistant. you know how much grease you spill on your house stove.
I have painted my cases with it and it has a deep glossy black, im not sure if it will hold up to fuel spillage but we will see in the near future. stay tuned and i will keep you posted. if it is in fact gas/alcohol resistant this is a much tougher and cheaper alternative to VHT! :cool:

I have used it on 2 different frames.. it holds up pretty well... much better than regular enamel, but its still spray paint... just be carefull with brake fluids and brake parts cleaner and it should work great..

i wish i could find it in red. i'd paint my frame with it. but the hardware store only had white, black and yellow.
