I have used this paint previously and have had mixed
results with it.  Sometimes it works fine, other times
it doesn't.  For example, I paint the doors that I
make for the DX-35 / DX-40 crystal compartments 9 at a
time.  Often 2 or 3 will turn out fine and the rest
will have varying amounts of wrinkle.  These are
painted sitting next to each other in a 3X3 placement
with less than 1/2 inch between the doors.  As such,
they get identical amount of paint and the paint is
applied within milliseconds of each other.

The result is that I don't use this paint anymore.

However, you may have various degrees of success.
