You must be good with a paint spray gun. I would say tape off the old decals. As far as a clear coat my question would be why. It takes a lot of sanding and them buffing to get a good finish. Just what are you going to do with this mower when you are finish with it. Show it or mow with it? I find mower that get used get scratched.
