hi... cant see why not.... what have you painted on? will it be exposed to the elements?

the clear will protect it, but it the paint might not be as resiliant as auto paint (im assuming you havnt used createx Auto air)

Hks, I'm not sure but Createx makes AutoAir which can be cleared. I don't see why not. BigD might have a better idea. You could test a small piece of substrate with Createx and Urethane clear in a can. If it looks good then I would say go ahead.

what I'm worried about is the chemicals in the clear reacting to the createx

I am not sure if it will fade in the future, if it is in the sun a lot. I did something 5 years ago like that and it had some faded sunspots.
