Question 86 Grds Red org paint clear coated?


Anyone out there know if the 86 models in original Grds Red has clear coat?

I have always owned metallics with clear coats so I'm unsure how to approach caring for non clear coated paint and it being all original I do not want to mess it up....
I am also a loyal user of Zaino which has provided excellent results for many years on all my cars paint.

Solid colors were not clear coated. Only the metallics. First try using a wax/polish and see if that helps.

Tried the Zaino All in one. Faded the marks a bit but did not remove them.
I may just live with them and not strees the 26 year old paint.
