    its bee n a while since I done any painting, but if I remember correctly, clearcoat and laquir are the same thing, once your primer is dry, lightly sand it, you need to do this to every coat of paint/primer. Put your color on but make sure you get no runs in it or its more sanding and retouching of paint work, once thats dry, wet sand it but lightly then clearcoat/laquir it. You are best to do 2 coats of color and clearcoat/laquir.
    Burn rubber, not your soul!
