    Maybe a stupid question, but when I waxed it last there was some red on the wax applicator - someone told me it doesn't have a clear coat, but I thought it did, am I wrong?

    If there's body colour on the cloth then it doesn't have a clear coat.

    Should be base coat/clearcoat unless someone painted it with single stage enamel at some point. Ferrari started using two stage paints sometime in the early eighties I believe with the GTSi cars.

    I think they only used base coat / clear coat on metallic colors. My 89 348 definitely gets color on the cloth when being waxed.
