Self Cleaning Paint

Saw this interesting article on consumerist today about Nissan testing a "self cleaning paint" that repels water and some oils.

http://www.consumerist.com/2014/04/...-car-after-testing-water-mud-resistant-paint/

I wonder how this would affect the adhesion of vinyls? Even though the adhesives are not "liquid" in nature, I'm curious how vinyl would adhere to this repellant surface... especially over time.

It would sure be difficult for anyone that likes to do wet applications of cut vinyl!

I wonder if this is a derivative of the "Neverwet" product that was released last year?

Neat stuff, wonder how long the coating lasts. Reminds me of this video.
