    Scratches no match for Nissan's new car paint
    By Agence France-Presse

    TOKYO--Nissan Motor said Friday it had created a paint that repairs scratches on its own, restoring a car's surface to normal within a week.

    The Japanese automaker said the paint contains a newly developed resin that can stop scratches from marking the car's outer layer.

    Wear and tear due to everything from fingernails to roadside objects will disappear in one day to one week depending on the temperature and the seriousness of the scratch, Nissan said in a statement.

    The "Scratch Guard Coat" paint, which protects for three years, will debut on a sports-utility vehicle which is set for a makeover, Nissan said.

    The paint also helps prevent scratches in the first place. Nissan said a vehicle with the paint suffers only one-fifth of the usual abrasions caused by car-washing machines -- the main culprit for scratches.

    depending on the temperature?

    sa tingin ko... parang "soft" yung paint compound... which seals up any scratches in between...

    Is that the same concept as self-cleaning roof paint that turns powdery?

    Malulugi yun mga wax company when the time comes na hindi na natin kailangan ng mga swirl remover, wax, or poslishes. Good for us though =)
