Painting the 650sx w/polyurethane

[Freestylin-FX1]

Anybody ever try brush on polyurethane? I decided to give it a shot see what ya think?! If there is interest I could try to put together an actual writeup. Im trying to keep it cheap it is a 650 so its not really worth much but I thought it would be interesting practice before I start on the Yamis.

is that color metallic? Looks pretty good. can't tell but it looks like dust fallout on the paint. Is it a one part paint? I think if it is you can put multiple coats on it and then wetsand and polish to get out the dirt and dust and there is always one bug that flies in it:banghead: then it looks like it might be hard to tell you didn't spray it. It still looks good and was probably tons easier and cheaper than spraying it. and now you can touchup anytime.
