RE: custom paint
maybe you should leave it to the pros....atleast have maacoo do it. Cause im not trying to flame if you do not know what a clear coat is you shouldnt be attempting to do this yourself. You might wanna like read up on this stuff first before you tackel such a huge job, trust me, thats what i did and honestly i still managed to screw things up.
if you have any questions just ask maybe i can help
but the answer to your question is, clear coat is the last stage usually in painting. Its what gives paint the extra wet/glossy. Usually the color is about 1 coat about a mm thick i think it is than you follow with about 7-9 coats of clear.

oh sorry i forgot u get it at a auto paint store. im sure there is tons of them in your town. if u want to see samples go to the store and they have books upon books of paint codes i doubt u will find samples on the net since it wouldn't do it justice u can't see nothing as far as paint on computers...yea clearcoat is that clear stuff on top of the color. u probably should leave it to the pro's cause u need alot of stuff to spray that kind of paint like compressors spray guns booth all kinds of prep materials.
clearcoat should have 4 coats max and sand away one or two.
