Decals... To clear coat or not?

You might find this thread useful reading. Future is an acrylic polish from SC Johnson (I think) also sold under the brand names Pronto and Kristal Klear (or smthg similar)

I have a related question and rather than start another thread, I'll ask it here since it might touch on something Ray said earlier.

I have just used Pronto floor polish for the first time on some CF on my DBR9 (I decided it was a good time to experiment). I put it through my airbrush and I have to say that the results look pretty good to my eye. It's damn runny though - light coats only!

Here's my question. In the photos I have seen of bottles of Kristal Klear/Future, the liquid is transparent. However my Pronto polish was rather yellowish/cloudy in appearance (it was NOT the variant for wooden floors BTW). Has anyone else noticed that their local formulas are also this way or is it transparent everywhere else in teh world?

I am planning on doing an experiment at the weekend on a scrap windscreen to see what color it is after drying (it's hard to tell on black CF decal )

Thanks in advance for any input/insights
