Default Clearcoating Alum rims

Hi, I was thinking of PCing my rims. I have them to a nice polished luster now, but wanted to add some Lolypop Blue and then Clear the whole rim to preserve the finish. Is there any drawbacks to this? Willt eh Clear change the Alum color at all or yellow?? Any special prep needed? I was planning on

Degrease with Acetone or similar
Outgass/preheat
Shoot at 150* F
Cure at lowest temp/max time for the powder
