mate you only need clear when its a metalic colour C.O.B (clear over base) but if you would like a nice deep shine a
little bit of clear on the the last few coats will not hurt it.. With dark colours black purple blue etc etc I generally treat it like C.O.B to protect the colour |

| I agree entirely I would put clear over just for appearance and longevity's sake, besides if you have all the gear, why not go the whole 9 yards? |
