Won’t a good clearcoat prevent fading?

No matter how good a clearcoat is, there’s nothing to prevent fading when the paint has no UV resistance.

What is the difference between dayglow & neon?

NOTHING! Dayglow was a term used in the 60’s & 70’s to describe neon pigments. These same pigments are used in neon paint.
