Can I file a mechanic's lien after the property was sold?

Pennsylvania

Can I file a mechanic's lien after the property was sold? It may be that PA Mechanic's Lien Statute Section 1303 (c) discusses this: Conveyance prior to lien. If the property by conveyed in good faith and for a valuable consideration prior to the filing of a claim for alterations or repairs, the lien shall be wholly lost. We painted a property and before completing payment, the property was sold to a third party.
