It depends on what you like to use in some part. Everyone has their own opinion.
I have used many different types including etex. But for my applications, two part auto clear works best for me. I do an awful lot of lures and I need a good quality clear with a quick turn around.

Any auto parts store that sells and/or mixes paint. Ask them for a good two part poly clear and they will help you out. I use a 4 to 1 mix.
The main basics are in all the clears ,the pricier ones have more UV inhibitors, but the main ingredients are the same as the lower priced ones.

Tried to use 2 part A/B Epoxy and find that it will effect (Bleed) paint job. Any advice would be great. See clear auto epoxy has been highly recommneded.
