Maybe in certain examples there might be small differences! But overall the usage are very similar. If you have an example I can try to see if there's a difference and explain it

They have still similar meaning but I would say sometimes "covered in" gives the nuance that it is totally, completed covered. Whereas covered with may be just a part of it?

Hope it helps you
