Touch-up question

I decided to touch up a couple of spots today with some matched rattle can paint. The paint can says that it should be clear coated. Should I put clear coat over the touch-up paint? Thanks!

Re: Touch-up question

Does the places you painted match now? If so I would leave it alone. Looks like the clear would make it shinny?

Re: Touch-up question

It looks pretty good the way it is. I just didn't know how well the rattle can stuff holds up. Most of the touch up stuff I've done in the past has been small chips. These spots are golf ball sized.
