Re: [ASC McLaren ] '84 hood scoop pics now available

id have to agree... the scoops are awesome...and who drives in the
rain???..
they do make satin clear coat. in the sign industry there is clear
coat and UV clear. we have 2 sign blanks in the shop with 5 years
of sun exposure, one with UV and one without....you wouldn't believe
the difference. now with a car, even if you cant get UV clear, the
benifits of clear coat are substantial. it protects the paint from
scratches, rock chips, and other damage. it does not hid flaws what-
so-ever, in fact it will show any and all flaws in the paint job.
