I think its very weak in this case. If a rock flies up it will scrape/mar the surface of the plasti-dip. However, this may provide protection to the underlying paint agains rocks. I wouldn't rely on it for protective purposes. It's more useful for apprearances. If you spray a coat on, let it dry and peel it off it has the thickness of a latex glove but its very stretchy. It all depends, I think against tiny little pebbles less than a gram plasti-dip will protect, but against anything larger than allergy pill at freeway speeds I would say the chances of it protecting are slim.
