Default Harley Genuine Clear Top Coat Instructions!

Am I missing something here? Just finishing off a rock chip repair and figured I'd read the directions for the Harley Genuine Motorparts "Clear Top Coat".

Directions
1. Shake vigorously for about 2-3 minutes
2. For optimum adhesion sand area to be touched up
3. Close container tightly after each use
4. For best results follow with a clear coat.

Not missing much. Give about 10 minute flash between coats. Hand rub it out with 3M rubbing compound fine after about 1 week.

But I've been clear coating the clear coat for days now and I don't know when to stop

the directions are pretty much all the same unless useing their 3 stage paints... for clear the surface needs to be scuffed up a little. aint mixed to directions then sprayed.. if your a paint guy youll know what to do.... harley paint is the same as ppg...

i think what he is trying to point out is that he is using the top coat, but the instructions are telling him to follow up with a top coat......
