QUOTE: Originally posted by danpik Testors Gloss coat works good. I have been using Future Floor acrylic Finish for a couple of years now. I use it as a gloss coat before decaling. I just spray it straight from the bottle. Dan Pikulski www.DansResinCasting.com

I've used Krylon Clear before. It's an excellent product. Forms a tough, glossy finish. It can orange peel if sprayed from too far a distance, and it can haze over if sprayed on too thick. Best applied in medium wet, thin coats.
However, for model railroad locomotives and cars I've seen much better results with the acrylic based Badger ModelFlex, Polly Scale Clears, as well as the solvent based Floquil and Scale Coat II.

Thanks everyone for the year of replies.
I've since bought a spray can of Testors Dullcote, which gives a nice finish over my airbrushed engines.
