its a quick 'paintjob' that goes over your primary color...so like for example..you have a white car and you want to try out a matte black, instead of giving it a complete paintjob over you can cover it with vinyl like in the link i will provide..apparently can last up to 4 years and still doesn't mess up the primary paint

was thinking about doing it just to do it and see how it is

-keeps your real paint clean
-protects from rock chips
-can change color of car to whatever you want
-don't need to wax
-if you get tired of a color, just change it!

There was an article in Hot Rod magazine several years ago about this. They took a '67 Chev Impala convertible, did some basic bodywork on it to clean it up, sprayed a coat of primer, then put the car in a white vinyl wrap with flames on it. It looked just like it had been painted, but it was a vinyl wrap.

the problem with the vinyl coverings if you change the color of your car get expected to get pulled over cause your car doesn't match the description on it's registration
