decals + clear coat....?

no if u put clear coat over the decals it will extend the life of them..hold them on better...but when or if they do come off the rest is prob gonna chip off with it
 
i put "dunlop" decals inside my rims, and then put 4 coats of clear over them, they're still holdin up, look close in my sig

I would think it would be ok on metal but plastic flexes,and the first small flex near the sticker will just start to flake.IMO
