Clearcoat will take away the shine on the paint. I used clear paint over chrome paint on the wheels of my jeep. It totally painted over the clear because it faded the silver.

I was talking to Ray Henry at Pro Powdercoating (www.propowdercoating.com) the other day, and he told me that with clear powdercoat, you'll lose about 10% of the shine on your rims - but you'll never have to polish again.
