Ah crud. I knew there was something I forgot! I went there for the flocking kit.
It looks a lot better than my camera phone makes it appear. Not flawless, but certainly serviceable. I still need to clean up the overpaint, and bake them when fully dry.
I bought clear polyester casting resin for the '68 gas door bird and fender birds. Those all had a thick, cracked, yellowed layer of clear. I doubt it will last any longer than the original, though I will likely apply it just a little thinner to attain a jewel finish.
The clear was very hard and stiff. I put them in a saucepan with water 2" over the top of the emblems, put them on to boil, and left them boiling about 45 minutes. One of the clears lifted completely off in one piece right in the pan; the others were soft and pliable and peeled off with just a little help from a nut pick.
