D Dfariswheel New member Dec 4, 2010 #2 Depends totally on WHAT clear coat, how much you handle it, how you handle it, and the quality of preparation and application. Lauer Duracoat makes a tough clear coating for guns in several levels of gloss to flat: http://www.lauerweaponry.com/item-d...mage=dccl1.gif&CFID=48761736&CFTOKEN=85402597
