Painting over Pledge future clear coat??

[2zwudz]

Can Pledge Future clear coat be painted over for stripes and graphics?

I wouldn't recommend it. You never know if it's gonna pull up with your tape, and even if it doesn't, if you have to remove any masking residue, almost anything you use to take it off will also remove the Future. It's fragile stuff. 

Yet another reason I don't use Future much if at all anymore.

What clear coat do you like to use Snake??? I’m clearing over Rustoleum?

I do it all the time with acrylics and enamels...

This build required multiple layers and lots of masking in between layers and the Future makes for a good durable intercoat:

Works great for me!

It’s gotta be pretty durable, it’s made to be walked on!?

I'd assume it wouldn't be any real problem.

I don't think wear-durability is the problem.  The problem might be compatibility with solvents used  in the paint applied over it.  The solvent in the paint applied  over Future can get absorbed into future, possibly causing it to wrinkle or worse.  Basically the same possible problem experienced when using layers of multiple brand paints  on a model.  I have  never tried this combination - just thinking out loud here.
