Personally, I'd never opt for a single stage paint job, but that's just me.
Because it's a lot easier to fix scratches/damages to the paint if there's not a clear coat and there's no chance of a clear coat flaking or being damaged by UVs. I'd rather have more paint and no clear. Just my opinion from years of detailing.
