I have seen black rattle can paint for vinyl, I imagine with some sort of flexible additive in it. My door panels are light/dark blue metallic and I have just used Duplicolor rattle-can touch-up (coincidentally a can of touchup bought for my daughter's years-ago Pontiac grocery getter (Starfire? Sunbird? Some such) is a perfect match for the dark blue... so of course Duplicolor has discontinued it!). I find that it chips easily - not sure if that is due to the plastic substrate, lack of clear coat, brittle paint, or 'just the way it is.' I get out a small touchup brush, spray a bit into the can cap, and manually touch up the dings every 6 months or so.
