Jim,
Now there is a real coincidence!!! Krylon clear coat is one of the spray 
paints I have been considering. I found some at WallyWorld for a little 
over $2.50 a can vs. over $5.50 for the cheapest polyurethane. That is 
actually less than what they want for a roll of Saran Wrap. Now, I think 
I'll just go back and get a can of this. If I get bad results, which 
considering what you say I shouldn't, I will let everyone know so they 
won't repeat my error. (I'm hoping for, No Runs, No Drips, No Errors! Oops, 
that's Rustoleum, not Krylon!{:-))
Regards.
Paul
