I have and I ended up damaging it before I got around to clearcoating it. I've removed all of it and now I'm trying to decide whether to do it over with tape or mask and spray with an airbrush.

You're not supposed to stretch it while applying it and it's hard to avoid stretching when applying it to tapered stays and fork blades. The seat tube was easy.

You can see it better if you click on the picture, click "full size" and then click on that picture.
