Many base coats are waterborne now, but clear coats are still solvent based. Even when a fresh paint job gets baked in a paint booth, it'll still off-gas for several weeks. If you cover fresh paint with PPF, you run the risk of getting air bubbles trapped between the finish and the PPF. My friend is learning this the hard way with his G80.
