Opti Coat and Vinyl mix?
Hey all...I am looking into an M5 that has Opti Coat applied. I'd like to consider a wrap on the roof to match the sunroof. Are there issues with putting vinyl over the Opti coat surface? thx!

I don't know if the above is correct. My process was: opti coat, wait two weeks, then clear bra, as per the detailers recommendation. I have had the clear bra over the opti for a year now with no issues at all. I think a warp is very similar to a clear bra, i think?

XPel themselves state that you should not place their film on any surface of the vehicle that has a 'wax' applied. Much better to clay bar the car after a good wash, then have the wrap or clear bra installed and then Opticoat, etc.
