Cool Berger mod question

hey guys, im doing the berger panel on my car, but was unsure if it requires a few coats of clear coat. Did you guys clear or not clear?

Definitely clear it, especially if you are using flat or satin paint. I tried mine for a few days without the clear and while it looked good it was a dust magnet.

I had mine done at a body shop and they put polyurethane in it so that it wouldn't start to get hazy and come off on your hand when you rub it. It's kind of a satin look. I like it.
