Thats not true. It does swirl.
And it will shine, but not a deep shine like paint.
Check out this detail my brother did on TME Lancer.

You can see the difference in shine quality.

costs about 1.5-2k retail iirc
Wouldn't it be cheaper to just get a respray if ya going for a normal colour
The difference is, you can revert back to the original colour for free as the guy with the civic did.

A guy on the Audi-sport forum is having his RS4 done in white at the moment. This is the only pic he has of it WIP so far

A company in Leeds is doing it for him, only costing £800.
Few other cars that have been posted for inspiration in the same thread

take it you would have to change the colour on the v5?
also how does the vinyl react to snow foam? is it safe?
