The container says it's safe for clear coat but doesn't specifically say anything about enamel. It worked great on the El (base coat/clear coat) but even though it makes the paint on the Vette (17 year old enamel) feel smoother, it obviously doesn't have the same look as the El when it's done. However, the Vette does look better after a clay job.
