Will gasoline affect spray paint ?

NEED TO SPRAY PAINT SOMETHING ON MY BOAT THAT MYA FROM TIME TO TIME COME IN CONTACT WITH SOME GASOLINE. WILL IT AFFECT THE PAINTWill gasoline affect spray paint ?
Yes it will affect most spray paint.


Might take some experimentation w/all the wonderful things in today's gasoline.


Might start w/a spray 'epoxy'...Will gasoline affect spray paint ?
Yes it will .May need to use epoxy paint resistent to fuel.
Gasoline won't bother it if you let it fully dry. I'd buy a clear coat sealer spray if you're really worried about it.
Gasoline will hurt spray paint. You should use a paint with a catalyst. The catalyst will harden the paint and make it much more resistant to gasoline. Unfortunately you probably won't find catalyzed paint in a spray can because once paint is catalyzed it must be used in 2-4 hours. You need to use a paint gun.
yes... will soften and eventually remove...
