clean all the old paint off , clean bowtie with dawn and water, sand with 320 grit, do 3 medium coats primer,sand with 400 lightly leveling the primer out smooth, then wipe with tack cloth, 1 light coat then 2 more medium coats of the paint, use a good clear, 3 medium coats, wet sand with 1500 and buff to nice glossy shine

You would think a top quality clearcoat would give the paint all the UV protection it needs, but when it comes to fluorescent colors it just does'nt matter. It has to do with the paint pigments and thats why alot of custom painters will shy away from using florescent colors. Hope this helps.
