no, i am pretty sure you have to apply the ceramic AFTER the vinyl - on top of it. Because the vinyl outlives the ceramic. And apparently, some vinyls take ceramics much better than others. but i believe there a lots of folks who coat the vinyl too. or just coat up to the edge. bottom line is that they can certainly live happily together. just have to find the right combination. from what i read, Xpel film is one of the best. Suntek as well. 3m is not as highly regarded in my admittedly not exhaustive, yet fairly thorough research.
