uv protective clear?

[mytyre]

I spray alot of Auto Air opaques, transparents and candies wondering if you need to use a uv protective clear on top of them. If so how do I know if my clear is a uv protective clear?

If it don't boast it on the container then I would guess it doesn't!!

Yes if its going to be in the sun at all , perty much any candys or transparents will fade quickly without the UV protectant. Ask Yer paint supplier to make sure Yer getting the proper uv clear. Or Like Red said its most likely stated on the can. Good luck & Welcome

Not familiar with it Bud, So You,d have to ask where You buy it , or see if they have any specs on line for the particilar clear You use . Good luck .

I don't see anything about UV protection so I guess maybe I am S.O.L.

[mytyre]

For anyone curious about this clear. I contacted the company after having no luck searching for an answer. All of the crossfire clears have UV protection. thanks for all whom tried to help me here.
