should I just finished with the rustoleum glossy clear garage epoxy. wondering if I should clear coat.

I tried to keep a wet line with painting, but somehow my "paint lines" show.



DO scratches on the clear coat show easily, and would clear coating make a big difference? it seems like I didnt apply the paint very evenely, or some areas soaked up more. it would be nice to do a coating of clear coat I think but its like 100 bucks. Do any alternative clearcoats work that arent so expensive as the rustoleum one?

When I started painted I did half the kit on half the garage, then opened the other half of the kit and did the other half the garage. would it be best to mix the entire kit (2as and 2bs) when the project was started so they both are drying at the same time to ensure drying consistency and no paint lines?

My understanding is that the best time to apply a clear coat is when the epoxy is still drying so the clear can chemically bond to the epoxy. Since your epoxy is dry you would probably have to sand the epoxy to get a mechanical bond.
