From experience I can offer just a couple of tips. White props DO NOT stay white very long. It the base color of your trunck remains white be prepared to touch up the scrapes and bruises on a regular basis. The other thing, flat housepaint also shows where it has been bumped or rubbed or scraped or looked at wrong very easily. A satin finish or a semi gloss works well and seems to hold up fairly well. Over the top you can even use a clear coat if you want. I would recommend a semi gloss so that it doesn't glare and prevent people from seeing you name.
