Polar Lights pre-painted GTO pint question

[HomerS]

Acquired a 2004 PL pre-painted GTO at the Cincinnati show on Saturday.  I had all the pre-paints and all of them have a mediocre shine to them but the pearl white seems more like a satin finish.  Better to polish it or clear coat it?

Clear coat.  Polishing anything metallic or pearlescent will knock edges and corners off of the particles in the paint already there.
