Solid colours don't need a clearcoat over the top; metallic colours do.
To find out what colours there are, check the Wiki:

Yep , thats why the go pink after too long in the sun 
You could get a good painter to mop the car, and then give it a coat of clear if the orig. surface was up to it.
Otherwise you could do a more costly correction of the paintwork, and finish with a coat of clear anyway
