I believe if the clearcoat is flaking, it may present a problem. And I don't think primer will work real well, since its kind of porous. The plastic can get "sucked in" and won't peal off.

The top of my crew cab is in kind of bad shape. I was thinking I could sand it down a little to clean it up, hit it with some gloss rattle can, and then spray plasti-dip over it.
