even though its a gloss color, the clear coat will give you more protection and also put alittle more shine on it ASh

Re: Painted my battery
oh for got my comment, to be honest i think it looks good and if you left it that shade of blue you will be fine, it looks good to be honest, i bought my yellow optima battery for that reason, but the easier thing would have been do what you did painted it, but its been a great battery to be honest, really happy with it
