Adding more clear

Say I wanted to add a few more coats of clear to the three I have now, seeing as I will probably cut and buff myself (first timer).

Can it be sanded flat with XXX grit and sprayed or do I need to add a coat of base in first?

Dont add more base, just wet sand with 800-1000 and spray 2 to 3 more coats.
 
I agree with Rusty, 400-600 works fine, there's really no reason to go any finer. I've also used 320 dry+ three coats with excellent results.
 
Thanks guys. Obviously I would spot some base if I burned thru, now what if it was due to a piece of trash that got caught up in the base? Will a 1mm circle of exposed base cause an issue if I were to add clear?
 
I have done it before and the results were good but the popular answer is to spot prime it so you don't get mapping of your edges

I have only done this with nason base without hardner
