This! I can understand if the paint was beat to **** or faded.. But that was actually a nice paint job on the car before. I know it's plasti-dip and is supposed to peel off but that alone is going to be so labor intensive.
OP hope you plan on keeping the car, you just killed the resale on it.

Matte white?!? You better take a pic because in about 8 seconds it will be stained every bug gut and dirt color under the sun. LOL. That satin white doesn't work in that type of environment, but it looks good as hell for the first day!

One of my old Civics I rattled canned satin white and it held up pretty damn well surprisingly. Traded the car about ~3-4 months after spraying it. The only bad part was the front bumper from all the bugs the rest surprisingly wasn't too stained or anything. I spent like ~30 hours on that paint job and the kid I traded it too spun a bearing and then painted it "pistachio green" which looked like total ****.
