I figured maybe some wax or something. I hate seeing the rust and old paint that have a thick coat of shiny clear sprayed over them....

I most definitely will never clear it, I think that’s ridiculous too. I am considering waxing it.
I’m not sure it would ever even really progress much being garage kept. It took almost 50 years outside to do that to it. What gets taken off by the CLR is actually mostly just rust stains on the paint. The paint loses its glaze and becomes porous and it allows the rust to stain the paint from what I understand.
