Have not seen it and my whole car is plasti dipped. I don't see it happening unless you already had clear coat damage to begin with.

Rubber Dip IS plasti dip, it's just diluted to make it easier to spray.

Only bad on a fresh coat of paint. If paint has fully cured, then it should be harmless, if not actually protective.

Had PD on my Audi for years and never had a problem. After peeling it it was good as new.

Go for it! No issues for me either! My front lip is currently painted and had many parts painted before!
Lots of fun
