This is my understanding as well. Double clear should not impact the appearance of your paint job - at least not as much as a proper cut and buff/polish. Double clear will give you more material to work with in the future should you like to do a lot of machine compounding/polishing or need to sand out some scratches/repairs.

I currently have a 3 year old Black Porsche 911 with no swirls in the paint.
I have hand washing to a science. No need for double clear sounds like the vote.

Thanks.

Surprised there are not more people weighing in on the top?

If that's indeed true you are a master of washing. My black show paint gets swirls by looking it at for more than 10 seconds. That's after a 6-8 hour 3 step detail with all the expensive towels and stuff. Knowing it was black and flat sanded/buffed I made sure my painter used plenty of clear b/c I know I was going to be machine compounding that paint semi-regularly (:

You might not realize it but your 3 year old 911 is esentially double cleared.
