The paint-like product I like is PlastiDip.
I've used it so far on a bike frame and car wheels. If you search on YouTube you'll find it's a surprisingly durable, low-cost version of a full vinyl wrap. Available in any color you can mix up, with top coat glossifiers, metallisizers and pearlizers—not to mention florescent colors.
I plan to use it to undercoat my panel van, instead of POR-15 or Rhino coating. It's all been media blasted but there would be a ton of work to get it ready for paint. So I will pressure wash it and spray 4 or 5 coats of PlastiDip. And the Rader Mag wheels that are an aluminum center with steel rim will be Real Aluminum with a Pearlizer.
There's the original plastiDip which it thick enough to dip tool handles in, then there's Plastip S which is thinned 50% for spraying, but with 100% more pigments so it still covers well.
