I wonder if you could add some metallic flake to a clear or top coat. It might give it more shine while hiding some imperfections.  |
and yes, go to
Rolled On - Affordable Paintjobs and you will find everything you nee to know. its kinda a hillbilly way but it works. you can clearcoat it, just mix it with mineral spirits just the same as you do with paint. the thing people like about NOT using clear is that you can just repaint a fender, door or panel no problem and match close to perfect as longas you mix the same. By adding clear, you end all future "repairs" you may want to do. yea you can repair spots but you have to take the clear off, repair the panel, then reclear. usually it will never look the same as the rest of the car so people ending up painting over half a car to make it look decent and match halfway decent. i dont see how this paint wouldnt hold up as good as any single stage paint such as maaco puts on....actually it should hold better because its implement paint.
