Clear coat over primer

Im leaving my truck primered. I have it primed and sealed with primer sealer. Would I be able to apply clearcoat to it to give it a glossy finish and to also be able to wax? or is it possible to clearcoat over the primer sealer? thanks

Yes you can clear coat over most prepped paints. A guy I used to race on the ovals would use black lacquer primer as a base (cheap/easy and quick), then he would clearcoat over it. It shined and looked really sweet...I doubt it would hold its color in the sun over a couple of years! He didn't have that issue being a stock car (you paint panels as often as you race), but it was cheap and sweet.
