Got my (2)tractors all done and moved on to my cycles. I've been sanding and buffing the aluminum parts, got that part down pretty good. I tried clear coating a piece using a spray can, but after sitting a couple days on the bench it got very fine hairline cracks all through it. I cleaned the piece thoroughly before spraying. What am I doing wrong? Can someone offer any tips? Thanks, Don

Don,
The problem with most aerosol clear coats is that they are not designed for aluminum and they react with the polish. If you use jeweller's rouge on aluminum and then coat with Nylac it will last a long time and look great.
