1996 Corvette BLACK paint
Quick and easy question....I don't believe that the 1996 Corvette's Black exterior is a clear coat car, but I wanted to ask for a general consensus on whether it is or not.
Reason: I am looking at purchasing Zaino Bros. car care equipment and want to make sure.
Thanks :confused:

It should be a clear coat.
I had mine repainted and had 7 coats of clear put on it.
Anyway.
Good Luck.

All factory painted 96 Corvette's have clear coat.

Has your car been painted? Many times when someone paints black or white, they go to a single stage. (If the color of your car comes off on your rag when you polish it, then you do not have clearcoat)
Didn't I just post this answer to someone else? :skep:

My black 96 never looked better than after the "full" Zaino treatment.
It is a lot of work but you will like the results!

I think it is man. They should all be clear coat from the factory unless the clearcoat was removed afterwards.
