So may I ask a related question on this thread?
I am about to have a small car (MG) painted. I can't decide on a base/clear coat, or just a two part enamel. I'm asking now because I will eventually have the same question about my Model A.
If I do the two part enamel now (cheaper) can I come back later with a clear coat? Factory clear coats around here have a habit of flaking off after a few years on the hood and roof and trunk lids. On the other hand, they do look good.
Decisions, decisions...
