I did a test run on a clear plastic drinking cup. I sprayed 4 coats of the gloss black and it turned out decent, but didn't have that polished gloss black look. Then I tried the clear and after one light coat, it turned almost a frosted black. Waited and tried a second coat and it only got worse.
I guess this clear is for directly on colored plastic, not painted plastic.
I don't think I will be using any clear. I'd like the gloss to be a little more glossy, but as long as there is a noticeable difference in the housing and the shrouds, it should turn out ok.
I'm going to test paint some more before I commit to the parts and may just end up taking them to a body shop. I have zero talent when it comes to paint.
