My question doesn't quite fit into any forum.
One of the places I am thinking of using your products is in the "service areas" of my '98 barritz blue BMW (paint code 363). I am interested in paint the trunk well area, which from the factory has a matte appearance and, obviously, no clear coat.
Will your basecoat paint alone be suitable for this purpose?

| I would always cover the basecoat with a clear as the basecoat by itself will fail without the clearcoat protection. |

| I have a 1993 Toyota Camry that was in a wreck many years ago. The vehicle was repaired but the paint on one of the fenders went to totally flat after a year or so. I was wondering if a lack of clear coat caused the paint to go flat and what I need to do to repair that to make the paint match the rest of the paint on the vehicle. |

| Was it shiny first then went flat? It may just need polishing with rubbing compound so I would try that first. |
