Hey thanks for the extra info, now I guess I have to think about how careful I wanna be haha. The flat clear coat sounds like a good idea to me, perhaps I'll search for some at C-Tire. I had planned to use a mesh to make some patterns to break up the solid OD paint a bit and I figure its better to protect that than ending up having to re-do that shtufff later. I have an extra stock so perhaps I'll try a couple methods (read: try the lazy way first) on it and see what I prefer.
