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.

....may nakita ako sa daan na xtrail na may sayad from front fender to front door. lubog yung pinto tapos may gasgas lang yun fender. so obviously, na dale yung fender at the time of the accident. no dent or imperfections, scratched paint lang talaga. i assume minimal impact lang yung sa fender but an impact is still an impact.
