I believe you can get clear waxoyl, but personally haven't tryed it as I went for black.

[andymini12]

the clear wax oil is more of a yellow colour and you can still see it.

That looks ok to, i just want something easy to put on, will stick and last

Im considering using something like this Belzona Awesome!

We use it for building roof repairs, basically you put a matting on the material to protect, then paint this stuff on. 24 hours later and you have a flexible, protective membrane - but to keep on topic, its available in white.

Not cheap though, but very very good.

if you prep the arches propely it will last and protect youre arches when dry its hard but durable hence name stonechip

is this paint compatable with 2k , celyy or synthetic paint as with stone chip you can useually overcoat it with other paints eg to match body clour ..andy

Couldnt answer that - to be honest its not really paint so much, it paints on but dries as a flexible plastic.

Would need to contact Belzona and ask em.
