Topcoat is the protective layer you put on top of paint. I think that in the case of Mr. Super Clear Flat, it's a lacquer topcoat.
Lacquer topcoat? Hm. That's kinda confusing. Anyway, thanks for the help. The stuff I have is Testors: All Purpose Dullcote - Flat Clear Lacquer. Not sure if that is the right stuff, but I tested it on an old V-Gundam kit. It seemed to work okay, but I'm not sure if I should get something different.
