I've learned something with these lacquer paints that doesn't make sense to me but works... primer, paint, clear coat, paint another two coats over that which shines it and then top coat with another clear coat or two and you get that deep rich color... not so deep after the first clear coat... that extra layer or two over that first top coat makes it really shine deeply!!! Weird I know but you can see the results and this is not polished at all!!! Did the same thing on the Caddy...
