Don't do either, wax does get in all the cracks and will peal your fresh paint later on. Clearing it could be done but its iffy. If I were going to do it I would clean the truck spotless by washing it with Dawn and hot water then let it dry in the room you plan to clear it in. Next get a quart or two of Bullydog Adhesion promoter, spray 3-4 coats of it then clear it with 3-4 coats of clear.
I did this to a chrome bumper on my S-10 and its been on there for 7 years now.
