Mr Hobby clear coat, anyone use it?

[martinfan5]

I am thinking about getting a can of Mr Hobby gloss clear coat , I have read a few positive things about it, but I am just wondering if anyone on here as used it and what are your thoughts about it?

I have used the clear flat and absolutely love it, if I could get it easier I would use it for everything. Since it is an acrylic you can also use it for a barrier coat for thinner based washes and as a base coat over vinyl parts. For any of my tank kits with vinyl tracks the tracks get a bath with this stuff and then I can use my regular paints for details the tracks without them staying sticky forever.

That would be good, most sellers I find are from Hong Kong so I'm looking at about $20 a can.
