Vinyl decals were never intended to have a clear coat put on top as far as i can discover within product specifications.
Can you clear coat over printed wrap vinyl.
Vinyl will stick to whatever you apply it to.
Hold the can six to eight inches from the surface and use thin coats so the paint.
So no clear coat spray can go over it.
Yes you can apply a clear coat over it.
We clear coated it and it has lasted several years.
My husband and i repainted his motorcycle and put vinyl lettering over the existing lettering that was under the base coat.
So today i m going to show you how to seal vinyl decals.
If you use them outside the outdoor weathering can take its toll too.
Spray one coat onto your vinyl.
Because the enamel one i looked at was made for 3m vinyl wrap material or will work for it well it said there was nothing else though because the enamel one i looked at was made for 3m vinyl wrap material or will work for it well it said there was nothing else though.
I d get your colour and clear coat on the car and let it cure.
You can very easily cover this with vinyl and with a little care you can do so with little or no air bubbles with good adhesion.
In today s post we ll go over some issues that can t be corrected with vinyl wraps and those parts of your car or truck that you re better off not trying to wrap.
Allow that layer to dry completely before applying a second or third coat.
And i ve yet to see any major issues.
However i ve seen many do it with great success for nearly 20 years.
Here s my take on things.
Most cast vinyl used for vehicle wraps will only adhere well to paint that is in original oem or like new or very good quality condition.
Spray two to three coats of clearcoat paint over the area that has been scuffed including the vinyl graphics waiting five minutes between each coat.
Primer has a close to microscopic texture to it and is intended to be painted over.
Even if you use a very strong or outdoor vinyl it can still come up or not last as long over time.
The question is how long.
