Default preserving paint on decoys

I just had an Idea! I am going to buy some new dekes and I think I am going to spray several coats of an Acrylic matte sealer on them. I seems I have to replace or repaint decoys way to often due to the paint chipping off in the feild. I will try this this season.

I clean my decoys and check the lines and weights before the season starts. Then I spray all of them down with Armour All. The green heads shine all season. Good Luck this year.
