I would like to repaint my old Bianchi bicycle using stove enamel like the british bike builders use. Do any of you have experience with this method of painting? Any references, resources, or suppliers of materials greatly appreciated.

All I have are more questions: Does this finish have to be baked on? What temperatures are required? Is it more brittle than other finishes?

You can brush it and still get a glossy finish. Yes it has to be hot, like 180 degrees. These enamels are relatively soft, don't chip easily but do not compound well either.

Where'd you find it? Our local hardware store dropped the line years ago.
