Just had the wife’s Mini Cooper S Convertible treated to GTechniq CS Light and Exo4, but I now want to put some 4D number plates on and much prefer the cleaner adhesive tape fit. Will it stick, or do I need to prepare the surface with something first??

Can’t see it being a problem, providing the tape/adhesive fully bonds, meaning water cannot get between it.

My Macan has Gtechniq ceramic coating and the detailer removed the Porsche letters from the tailgate to apply the coating. The letters were refixed with double sided foam tape, so I can safely say it will stick as I’ve had no issues in two years. No prep is required other than a wipe with an alcohol lense wipe.

That’s great feedback, thanks.
