Incralac is designed for non ferrous ie copper and
brass etc, handles UV well so its ok outdoors sorta, Ive done
a few clear coat test pieces including an incralac one and all
are now rusty after 18 months. If its out
of the weather though it may fair better. I dont think you
need to take it to a pro painter, use a mask and you will be
fine, you can buy it in spray cans or tins at most hardware
stores here in Australia.

Incralac comes in
solvent and water based types now. The water based is actually
a little harder than solvent and does not have the
"nasty" solvents in it. If you use a little you can
get it from Talas
( http://talasonline.com
)
5 gal quantities can be purchased at a considerable savings over
small quantities from
Stan-Chem themselves (manufacturer). If you order solvent, brace
yourself for hazardous material charge.
Another
plus for water based (no HMC)

Forgive me if this is a repeat. I looked it up in
the shop yesterday. You can get a small quantity, which they
call their "touch up" can. You can also get
an aerosol spray can. This stuff has 3 very toxic solvents
in it- xylol, acetone and something else that I can't
remember.
