ICI Autocolor, I'm putting single stage on first, then I'm going to wet
sand the single stage with 800 grit sand paper, followed by a nice high
solids clear coat. When you apply clear coat over single stage paint, it
flows out nicer and gives you much more depth and shine than a normal base
coat/ clear coat paint job. Basically your car will look wet all of the
time!! I'll let you know when I'm ready to spray!

I guess it would work, I mean, it does kinda make sense.. He's basically using the stage 1 as a base coat since its usually shinier then your normal Basecoat. Then once you add a couple of coats of clear to it, it should almost glow. Kinda like many coats of clear.
Edit: The key will be the sanding to get the clear to stick to the stage 1. Basecoat for a B/C is rougher, which helps the clear to stick better. Aslong as its sanded well I couldnt imagine it being a problem. Worse case, the clear will peal.
