This was a given on my list as I currently run a fleet of adapted Michelin C9 livery on Audi R8 2010, Corvette ZR1, Ferrari 599XX, Sauber C9, and now the AMG GT3.
I quickly realized why I moved to Kyrlon Fusion Satin Clamshell vs. the Rustoleum Heirloom. The Rustoleum tends to go on thick and thick coats don't ever really cure all the way. It remains soft and easily scratched, which is what happened on the AMG unfortunately. It's not going to age well. The others I recall doing many light coats and forgot that lesson.
The Michelin livery also is not very suited for the body style of the AMG GT3. I also adapted a couple aspects of various front and rear accents on this one. I should have painted the fender vents but didn't. I may at some point go back and do that. I always paint the wheels gold for this livery as well. I also added the rear yellow trademark ring on the rear right tail light. This was a feature of the C9 livery that I adapted to ever other body. You'll see a bunch more paint bleeds on this one as well. Working on soft paint made it hard to mask and not scratch a lot.
