Revell paint to soft?

I'm painting my Honda S2000 after adding 2 spoiler lips and double exhaust. The problem is that the Revell paint I'm using stay's too soft and scratches far to easy.

Could I spray on some brand of hardener to fix the problem?

Don't think I can buy Testors in the Netherlands.
I've got the feeling that "touch up spray" isn't a clear paint?

So... I tried a can of Tamiya spray paint as a clear coat.

Turned out to be a bit of a bummer. Think I sprayed on to much

The paint started to bubble a bit, the clear paint had tiny bubbles and started to turn yellow. I used a black marker to touch up the black windows and for a masking line or two... not a good idea as it turned out.

I just finished cleaning the shell and I'm repainting
When I'm finished I'll retry the spray paint, when that's finished I redo the masking lines.
