Paint Methods for Indian Motorcycle Parts 1949-1953

I would give it a good scuff with a Scotch Brite pad and you should be good to go.

I primarily use Rustoleum paint products. I believe they recommend to re-apply additional coats with-in 1 hour or after 48 hours. I have never had any problems with re-coating
days or weeks later.

I would like to know if anyone can tell me if it is okay to apply additional coats of paint after letting paint cure for a week?
I used rattle cans to paint a set of Indian vertical tool boxes and have two coats of flat black primer and two light coats of high gloss black paint on them. I did not have any JP 1 Fast Black as planned, so I used Rustoleum primer and paint as many people say--match the brand of primer and paint to prevent future flaking. I don't know if that's true.
If I wait a week or more to add a couple more coats, will the paint still be just as effective.

thanks.
