I used VHT brand on my panel, Josh. Unfortunately, I think it probably wouldn't work well, and would chip. It's hard to say for sure. I believe that a powder-coated finish like Lowell mentioned might work better because it would probably be tougher... just an educated guess. A finer wrinkle finish would be better for that than a coarser one. You can control that by varying the thickness of the wet coat(s). Thinner = finer. Mine varies a little, but it is what I might call a "medium" wrinkle.
