honestly the clear coat issue is rare or maybe ive havent seen/heard a lot of them but i witnessed it on his first hand.

my guess as to why; we drove 8 hours in pouring rain which soaked the tape followed by post-arrival 85 degree sun baking that wet tape for half a day. next morning taking the tape off we saw the damage.

so again, it's probably a rare occurrence. i will say i did it once to get my car tuned in MD only a 4-4.5 hour drive and the time to tape the car not worth it in my mind lol
