Welcome to the forum adiemwell ! If I understand your question correct, no mattter what clear you use will dull down the polished look.

your pic looks fine to me .... BMW, Mecerdes and Jag (USA) use the following coating method:
1. Primer basecoat - Powder
2. liquid coating for color
3. Acrylic Topcoat - Powder

I hope that helps...

Re: hello everyone

This is the process on coating wheels that you find in manufacturing...I noticed the rack of wheels and thought this information could be helpful to you. Please note I recommended Acrylic Clear as the topcoat since this product minimizes the loss of gloss on metallics better than polyesters and urethanes....

Re: hello everyone

this could be why when iam doing some wheels ill base them up with the silver bake that in the oven wen the wheels come out the all look like what the silvers true colour is ment to be but when i laquer them it dulls that colour down and changes the silver all togeather to like a more daker grey rather than a brght silver do u have a link to that particular laquer on pbtp.com
