Arrow Question About the Black Denim 72 Tank Graphic

I am curious, is the graphic on the black denim 72 tank a decal, paint etc?

Can it be easily removed or will it require a painter etc??!

Never knew they put a clear coat on a flat/matte finish lol, sounds counterintuitive!

I don't know jack about painting, but was told at the dealer that vivid black and matte black start with the same base coat and finish with different clears. Sounds weird to me too - I'm just repeating what I was told
