Hi Tony, Like you, I have just recently got back into the hobby after many years away. So welcome back. Your build is looking nice so far. As for clear coating. It depends on the type of paint you applied. Try to go with the same type of clear coat. Just a suggestion, but I would have clear coated and polished before applying BMF. Some clear coats tend to dull down the BMF. Acrylic clear coats seem to go over it just fine, and can even make it look brighter. But you never know, you may have to do a little wet sanding to remove orange peel or imperfections after clear coating, depending on what you use and how you apply it. If you do, it creates the risk of sanding through the BMF.
