I attempted that on a model once......didnt turn out so good. I used an enamel based rattle can clear and it ate the decals.

Very good point Goose. Always experiment off the truck. I used acrylic paints with an airbrush for the base black, silver and then the gold pin striping, but then used an enamel rattle can clear and that ate into the acrylic a little. Not so bad as to ruin the job, but I can see light patches through the black which thankfully looks like a shine. Live and learn! I will use all enamel in the future.
