Slyvierose, if you can spare the time and have the patience let that frame dry for a good week to two weeks. ANY paint takes a LONG time to actualy gas off all the solvents and achieve maximum hardness. It may be dry to the touch the next day but it'll be very soft and scratch prone. Let the same paint dry untouched for a week to two weeks and it'll be a LOT tougher, scratch resistant and less prone to chip off from contact pressure as the parts are re-installed.
