I sgree Spoolin that if paint is not clear over base then you can cut the paint, but as far as I am aware I think the MINI is clear over base. If you see a car which has been repainted with just a colour coat the paint looks like matt emulsion. It is only when the lacquer is added that you get the depth and shine of finish.
