If its getting painted while on the car and its never coming off unless you crash into something and screw it up anyways.. then what difference would it make anyways
but if its off the car, its a big floppy hunk of nothing, and helping to make sure your paint doesnt start cracking or spider webbing before you even get it on the car, well hey whatever thats up to you
ask your paint supplier and consult the data sheets for your paint, this is one of those topics that asking on the internet will not be helpful.. very many opinions, very little experience (i fall into both categories
