yep we added clear 50/50 to many of the lacquer and some of the enamel jobs if they were metallic or just get it nice and even then let sit 24 hours and nail it with dau 75 clear the good old days ... i have done many single stage solid paint jobs were guys would ask hey just how many coats of clear do you have on that things ? we allways talk about clear over some colors mosty over black were it just did not do any thing ...i did them every day at work base coat/ clear is the only way to fly most of the time easy to work with and blend not hard for most to paint.for many colors you can get nice job and good hold out .but i feel to only get a dead flat miles deep paint job the base need s to be dead flat with base coat /clear coat . can be hard at times when you walk around a car 4 or more times to get the base to cover and sanding some of it as a pain in the ass .single stage may be better for real paint in the can and not dryer clear in some cases not much paint. single stage solids you can sand till dead flat then wheel it or clear
