The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Paint and Body Shop Applying clear coat with roller or brush

I would NOT apply clear with a roller or a brush!!! The chances it will look worse than the current finish is very high.

The prep prior to clear coating would be acactly the same ( spray vs roller/brush) and accounts for 70-80 % of the cost and work. If cost and equipment is the issue ......do all the prep and have someone spray the clear.
