If you get the consistency right (somewhere between water & milk) it goes on in thinner coats and dries faster which means you will have less sanding to do and you'll be able to do it sooner. The whole idea is kind of an experiment. The biggest mistake I've seen people make is going too thick.

A buddy used this way of painting his car about a month ago. He used oem black paint. From being there during the process, after completely painting the car, he tried using duplicator clear coat. The results weren't good. By morning, the paint covered in clear coat would crack. He re painted the area over 3 times and still the same result. The paint looks good without the clear coat, but I have no idea how long it will stay like that.
