Anybody  tried Summit Racing's Chassis Shield paint? Work OK for you? Was 
one
quart  enough to do a Triumph frame?
 
==AM==
I can't vouch for Summit Racing's paint. However, I did a Rotoflex GT6+  
chassis and some of the small suspension bits with POR-15's chassis paint.  
One quart (two coats in some spots, and all applied with foam brushes) just  
barely made it, so I suspect it might not be enough for a TR  chassis, or for 
a later Spitfire "Federal" chassis with the rear  extensions, or a Herald 
chassis?
 
I am, so far, very happy with the POR-15 paint. The project has been  
stalled for about a year now, but the chassis still looks great -- if dusty --  
and the paint seems extremely hard and durable.

Herald engine with wings.
