All (in the past 2 decades I think) Honda/Acura paint is clearcoated.

I heard that Milano Red on Prelude is not clearcoated because the clear coat will make it look orangish but just heard of it from the prelude board.

I thought all modern cars were clear-coated to enhance the durability of the paint?

Yes...milano red has a clearcoat...it is actually a tricoat color which means there is a base-coat, a mid-coat, and finally a clear-coat...

Friend had a red 1998 Mazda 323 and it had no clearcoat. Paint would come off.
