Default paint, decals, clear coat

Hello,
I just painted up my rc4wd Gelande D110 body.
Can I put some decals on the body and clear coat over them? Are Clear it the add my decals?
Thanks

You can clear over decals, but be aware that they will not come off without ruining the clear coat if you should change your mind down the road. If you lay down several coats of clear and carefully wet sand after each coat eventually they'll blend right into the paint. Otherwise they will stand out from the clear coat.

I cut my own decals and applied them from the inside, and painted over them...
