    Photo: "splatter" paint job on a Micra

    Spotted in the latest edition of the Micra Cup Magazine. ( https://www.micracup.com/Micra-Cup-Nissan-Magazine-Free )

    Maybe it's a vinyl wrap?

    Either way, looks neat.

    I once saw an original VW Beetle done up with a similar paint job where they stripped the body off the car, and slowly dipped it into & out of a pool that had different colours of paint floating on the surface. It came out with quite an amazing effect.

    It's actual paint, and a lot of it.

    I watched the guys at 'DipYourCar' do it on their youtube channel a while back, I assumed that's what it was at first since it'd removable.

    You don't need time! You just need a couple of energetic children and 5 or 6 cans of brightly coloured paint.

    Have at 'er, kids!
