What kind of paint and clearcoat did you use on the frame? and how's it been holding up?

Hey this is her hubby I painted the bike.
I used automotive acrylic enamel/urethane paint with catalyst and I swear I can't remember the brand it might be DuPont. I just got it at the local auto body shop supply place. I have a compressor and spray gun I did it in the garage. Got the decals from an old timer bike shop guy in So Cal.
It was painted about 10 years ago and it still looks pretty good after 1000s of miles.
You can email me if you have more questions.
