The whole idea is kind of an experiment. The biggest mistake I've seen people make is going too thick.

Do Not PM me your technical questions. Post them in the forum!

From being there during the process, after completely painting the car, he tried using duplicator clear coat. The results weren't good. By morning, the paint covered in clear coat would crack. He re painted the area over 3 times and still the same result. The paint looks good without the clear coat, but I have no idea how long it will stay like that.
