Yes, I am aware that the rules talk about applying clear coat paint to parts for aesthetic reasons, but the metal wheel is a pretty important part and the rules also state that it can't affect the beyblade's performance - which I think this could do.
I could not care less about the legality of something done to preserve the aesthetic appearance of Beyblades I have no intention of ever using.
Moreover, a thin enough coat of this - applied by a skilled spraypainter - would not, in fact, heavily affect the energy transferrence during metal on metal contact in any significant way. Also, this is acrylic, not enamel. Granted, the number of people capable of applying the right thickness is probably very low, but if done right, there's not likely to be a recognizable problem - a coat of clearcoat/topcoat can be applied thinner, actually, than the paint thickness on Galaxy's MW, for example.
I'd never do this to a part I actually wanted to use, though. I'd stick to polishing, for that.
