FWIW, I have done two frames with PC (including a PC clear coat) and then used rattle can clear coat to go over my sensitive water slide decals. I have not had any issues on either bike. I use duplicolor acrylic enamel spray can per Velocals recommendation.
I am not a chemist but since PC is basically just a polymer coating it's pretty non reactive and I don't think the solvents in most paints will do much harm.
