Best thing on the paint to stop fuel from eating it is either Nitro Blocker, or get some automotive lacquer, either way, you will need to leave the paint a couple of days to cure.

Yep, give me a shout if you need any help Aaron.

As for protecting paint, I use and would recommend Plastikote super clear. Use in light layers so the solvents dont attack the paint and you will be fine.
