DuPont 72500S looks great and sprays very easily. I have sprayed the PPG Global D894 and D893 and DuPont has them beat hands down. Better gloss and depth but the DuPont and PPG all spray pretty much the same. I have never used Sikkens though.

You might consider Southern Polyurethane's Universal Clear. You can buy it here:

An idiot like me can spray it and it turned out very nicely.

ppg, dupont all of those are old technology, sikkens is by far the newest technology. If i had to go with old technology i would go for house of kolor. Ppg has alot of the same products in different labels with different prices. I guess that goes with any clear it depends how you spray it, but with this weather here in houston im usning slow everything and it is laying down like glass.

DuPont Chroma Premier clear and don't look back. PPG clear's UV protectant dries and settles to outter layer, which means if you wetsand the peel out your no longer safe. Dupont Is protected all the way through and sprays soo nice.

Well i guess we can all say any expensive clear is going to be good. Hok clear has twice the uv protectant than any other clear. I guess it also depends how you like to spray your clear to me it seems like the ppg clear is more gelatin like as to hok and sikkens more of a watery feel. I personaly like the watery feel and it seems to lay down better for me because it atomizes better and leaves the least orange peel. Of course you can put like 10-20% reducer in any other clear but you are going to be messing with the curing factor and with this weather i'd rather not risk it.
