Micrometer stand

That might explain my results although usually I'm pretty good for reading the fine print. Next time at my favorite auto paint store I'll inquire. I know I've seen this finish in other applications where baking would be impractical if not impossible. Some of the spray bomb 'high temp' paints do require post cure to achieve the temp ratings, maybe what you have is high temp (first priority) and wrinkle finish (secondary effect) vs a product that is wrinkle but not intended for heat etc.

This stuff won't provide a nice winkle finish if it's not put on just right. It needs a few heavy coats applied within a fairly short time frame.
If I can, I usually bake my small stuff that I've painted with justTremclad also. I find it it takes a long time for Tremclad to get to its maximum hardness but baking it at about 200 degrees Fahrenheit "cures" that issue.

Wrinkle / textured paint can be finicky , the example shown here turned out well .


I use it when restoring 40 + year old engines to make them look new .
The oven gives best results .
On some stuff , ifs fairly tedious work , masking , filing / sanding highlights to expose the alloy below , each piece is treated with love .

Here's one I did recently , it got the full meal deal , each piece was hand massaged .

Nice bike. Now I'm more intrigued by this paint. And I don't even have a project in mind!

Sorry about the subject tangent.

Here's the plan for one I designed and made for myself a few years back.

The stand is no longer on the PA website. Or at least my search didn't fine one. Very nice work on these stands!
