I agree with Klutz_100.Sometimes I find that applying a clearcoat is not always necessary.Most motorsports cars have vinyl stickers for the sponsors and numbers etc.In reality they are not clearcoated over they are simply applied over the paintwork.I find with most of the Tamiya TS range a good rubbing compound and polish can bring up a brilliant shine without the need to clearcoat.I only use a clearcoat when I must (basecoat paints,some metallics etc) Why add an unnecessary step in the painting process if you don't need to.
