Maaco calls this their Fickle Paint job.  Guaranteed to last through 3
carwashings and then you take it back and paint it another color, sorta like
toenail salons.  At least they pick most of the lint out of the roller
covers before applying the paint and those big mayflies add a decorative
touch, doncha think?
