Default PC over Factory Finish???

Would you PC over a NEW FACTORY FINISH I believe it is either PC'd or Baked Enamel finish. VERY THICK and not easy to scratch.

I have gone over a new finish that was anodized. It worked and looked excellent. Now as for going over powder coating that is risky, but look at this way you can take the chance of going over it and wasting a little powder and having to strip it down anyway or it may work just fine. I think I would try it. You might learn something.

Looking at the I think they might just be baked enamel. But WTH I will give it a try when I am ready. I only have about 75 parts to prep and clean before I go on a 2 day PC Binge!!!!
