Anyway. The only problem I've had with faskolor is it actually washing off when it gets wet. So I try to back it all with pactra white Flo' cover coat now to seal it.

Sometimes it does peel off when it is put on top of another paint. but I've never had a problem with it actually peeling directly off the polycarb'...except in major impacts, as it isn't as flexible as the solvents.a
It does sometimes get a bit 'rubbery' when its at a certain dryness (if that makes sense), and its at this point when it tends to peel off from the lower paint layer. I always 'force' dry mine and don't unmask until it is properly dry.

It doesn't like to go on top of chrome sometimes either. If the chrome is put down first for pin striping you can quite easily peel the chrome off when unmasking the other sections. which is a real bugger. so sometime when this starts to happen I end up having to re-cut all the lines again.

I still find solvent better, but the faskolor is better for my health so I put up with it.
just back it with faskoat it never washes of then,
and i use liquid mask it doesn't seem to lift paint at the edges,but remove the masking tape before paint is dry,but not when its wet,dry it with a hair dryer onces its dull remove the tape and all should be well, nice clean edge and no paint lift,
