Also, Wal-Mart has a clear acrylic sealer that can be found in the craft section. I've had great results with it.

How's your ability with a spray can ?
That will be the biggest factor I think. Here is a recently discussed thread about that product over at tfw2005.com http://www.tfw2005.com/radicons-cust...nishes-165493/ ^^^

A general rule of thumb is to spray 12" away from your object. Use several light coats as opposed to one thick one. Spray in a sweeping motion from side to side, pressing the nozzle before reaching the object. Practice on something else first. Use some spare parts, paint them with the same paints you used on the custom and try it out on that.
