I saw a picture of a bike here before that was painted with Flat Black. I wasn't sure if it had Clear coat on it or not, but it looked great. I was thinking of painting my plastics all flat black, with a layer of clear coat. i was told i need something in the clear coat to make it work on the flat paint.

The guy said i could mix "it" in with the paint, but if I am just doing a spray can job, I would have to buy special spray paint that had it in already. Has anybody experimented with clear coat over flat paint?

I have no clue where that pic went, i think it might have been an r6, or r1, was in the black bikes thread, but searching got me nothing.
