which clear should I use?

Painting the Dodge truck military style camouflage like the military m880. After I figure out how to spray the 3 color pattern I want to spray a flat clear on it. Should I use the matte clear or another clear with the liquid flattening agent put in. Which would give me the flattes look. Can the flattening agent be put in the matte clear for a really flat look that the military had?
 
Use the matte clear and yes you can add a little more flattener but won't need much.
Do spray test panels so no guess work is involved, well worth the time.
 
Ok, thanks. Now I have to find some paint, any you would recommend. What should I use, a single stage or 2 stage?

For that application more than likely you'll have to DA sand the headlight with 320/400 to make sure you remove that special hard coating they have from the factory. Then use the 700-1 SPI cleaner and spray the Universal clear, 3 coats should give you good build and plenty of room for buffing. I'm advising this from memory of an older post in the older forum, so I'm really really hoping I'm not giving wrong advice. If I do someone will correct me on this info.
