Wow, I'd never seen those. Stupid question time....what purpose does the clear serve? To make whatever color it's put on top of either more glossy or more matte? The clear isn't used to put between coats, is it? I may have to try my hand at this....

I use clear to do final coats on figures, but I use it to create my own clear color paints. I add pigments to the clear paint to make specific colored clear irisawa based paints. For example, I don't care for the Irisawa clear red paint (it looks more like pink than red to me), so I add clear candy concentrate to the clear paint and I have a range of clear red paints now.
