Has anyone checked with a paint shop to see if a clearcoat can be added......

End result? car looks great and i don't get any of those swirly looking scratchs from drying the car with a cloth. I hit all sorts of debris while driving to work on the dirt roads for 15+ miles in the mornings but the paints really holding up still looks great.

i think it all depends on maintenence.

Drying your car with a cloth doesn't leave swirly scratches unless you're either not using a 100% cotton rag, or the the rag's dirty.
