I have seen top auto custom paints such as HOK do this.

You would think a top quality clearcoat would give the paint all the UV protection it needs, but when it comes to fluorescent colors it just does'nt matter. It has to do with the paint pigments and thats why alot of custom painters will shy away from using florescent colors. Hope this helps.
