flat clear suitable for brushing?

Hi, I have a quick question:

Can anyone recommend a good semi-gloss clear, which is suitable for brush painting? I haven't had any luck finding such an item in the local hobby stores. I will be using it to overcoat carbon fiber decals which are on the inside of a body panel, where I don't want to mask off and risk getting it on the exterior paint.

Thanks!

Testors Acryl semigloss clear. I brush it on chrome wheels to tone them down to look more like polished aluminum. It brushes quite well; you have to do a fairly "wet" coat & try to cover as much as possible in one brush stroke, then let it sit & dry.
