Crystal clear spray coat durability

I've been having some E-tex issues that I can't explain????? Still working it out.

I've made some custom bottle openers and grill utensils for family as X-mas gifts. They all have a coat of E-tex, then paint, then Crystal clear spray, then detail paint, then 2 more coats of crystal clear spray.

Does anyone have some advice on how durable multiple coats of crystal clear spray will be for something that won't be in the water, but will be handled quite a bit (Bottle opener in Wisconsin)

Time is short as I will have to attempt the E-tex tomorrow at the latest to fix any issues before Friday.

Thanks in advance for the tips, Happy Holidays

Hey MS, Multiple coats should be fine...thin coats with a light sanding with fine steel wool inbetween.

ms if your problems with etex is after the cear coat they are not compatable.you can ask smitty cause he thinks i am crazy but i use 3 coats of etex on every plug and never have a problem.i never you a clear coat over paint and i deff. not suggest you use it before epoxy.
