I understand how some people feel that base coat clear coat makes a classic look too shiny. I felt that way myself and planned on having my car done in single stage when I had it painted . At the time approximately 4 years ago painters were telling me that the quality of single stage paint had declined greatly and good products were hard to find. So I went with PPG clear coat base coat and a very glad I did. With my color and most of the high impact colors are kind of flat and have no metallic or real depth but by adding a nice clear coat it really makes the color pop.
