TS-52 Candy Lime Green Spray help

Hi, I was wondering how I should polish TS-52 Candy Lime green Spray? I'm not sure if I should use Clear Coat or Just some Compound/Wax. Also, if you have a Candy lime green car please show it. Thanks!

It's a good idea to always clearcoat metallic colors.

Since it is definitely a metallic, I would suggest a clearcoat on it too.
Here is a model my wife is building and is painted in the color, it is the Revell Beetle kit, not the Tamiya one(she regrets this) but the candy lime green paint came out really well, all she is going to do is polish it with Tamiya Wax when she is ready.
BTW she built this on her own, although it is not yet finished, as you can see, she let me take a photo for you


Hope it helps

Ray

Here's a pic of my Skyline R34 sprayed with TS-52 Candy Lime Green with few coats of clear coat.

This is a great colour. I did a Impala Lowrider in this and in the shade this colour goes almost fluro green!

As you can see, bad quality photos but I will take some better ones when I take some photos of my Roadrunner & Superbird.

Thanks for all the responces. They all look great. Funny Enough, I was going to spray the New Beetle the color so that worked out great Freakaray. Njh, Did you then use Compound/Wax on it? It looks great
