    My suggestion is to get a bodyshop to do it professionally. DO NOT buy a can of clearcoat spraypaint and think it'll work! It will look like crap if you spraypaint it on.
    Let a bodyshop know that you will sand the car/section down yourself, and get a quote for just a coating of clearcoat. They should give you an idea of what to use to sand the section down.

        I had my rear valance painted black (see my site below), and took it to someone else to have it clearcoated. The clearcoating ran me $45, but I carried the valance in and they had it for two days.
        Somewhat off-topic~ I'm just starting to learn how to paint and clearcoat. I bought all kinds of stuff, and me and a co-worker rent a garage that we are practicing our painting skills in. Hopefully by this summer, I'll be ready to paint/clearcoat my camaro myself. :D :D :D
