Why consider clear coating it at all? Mine is shiny, stays shiny, and it is even softer aluminum than Kirkham's. The nice thing about it is that (within reason) you don't have to protect the finish. If somebody puts their hands on it, or a rock chip or something, you just sand it out. If you clear coat it, then, like paint, you've got something you have to protect. The only place my car has finish problems is the painted meatballs.
