Just wondering if it would damage it coz I can't be bothered masking it ;) Would it react with it etc.?

You shouldn't have any problem.

This car was painted that way:

Thanks CF... is the body painted using alcad II ? Or the wheels ? I take it I can just place 3 layers of wet coat then ?

Yes, the body was also painted with Alclad.

Regarding the wet coats, I think that the best idea would be to follow the instructions of the technical data sheet of the varnish... Most of them are usually aplied in two coats leaving 5 or 10 minutes between them
