No Clearcoat!
Hey guys, I had my body shop paint my rear bumper, but I don't think they ever clear coated it because when I was there, it was still hanging outside in the sun waiting to be dried. However, that's what I'm assuming though... Can anyone please tell me how a non clear coated piece would look as opposed to clear coated? Also, can I apply the clear coat myself if it wasn't already clear coated?

what color car do you have? If you have black or red, they could have done a single stage and you wouldn't know the difference for the most part. edit: I checked your profile and you have PPW which has a separate clear coat. The paint would have a noticably flatter sheen to it if it isn't cleared
Oh it looks shiny, not dull. I guess it was clear coated.
Thanks, was worried for a minute.

If you see it upclose in direct sunlight, you can actually see a very very thin layer of clearcoat. Im pretty sure they did man, dont worry about it. If your eyes like it, thats all it counts.
