Some base can be have a little activator mixed in with it. One cap full per spray gun cup. That will help with chemical adhesion of the clear. Base is always the weakest link for adhesion in a paint job though. It's also why I always want to use a sealer/adhesion coat of reduced epoxy in the hours before spraying the first coat of paint.
I think this is mandatory step if the last coat of primer was epoxy.
