Yes you can. It was already covered before. Here is a pic of my R-1. I use automotive paints on my kits, and I don't have a problem with the decals. Just make sure they are fully dried before spraying the clear.

When you say you use automotive paints, do you mean:
- spray can or touch-up paints/clears
- two part enamel paints (with activator)
- base/clear type system
I'm interested in learning more about automotive paints...
