Thanks for the links and explanation! I was kind of joking - people generally have to eat to live.

Yes, because getting older is associated with cancer. If you don't eat, you don't get older (paradoxically calorie restriction is associated with longevity).

I don't think I can help much more, sorry. The shop I worked in was completely automated and worked on new builds. In most ways, it's much harder to do a one-off repaint of an assembled vehicle. Only advise I can give is to get so

My understanding about chameleon paint is that it's very hard to match if it's not all painted at once. I think the difficulty may depend on your expectations for the final product.

It would be better phrased as "most ... intensive part of an automotive assembly plant". Generally, the only big thing that assembly plants actually manufacture is the body (including painting the body) Once production was shut do

There's a red tintcoat that's just amazing. It's red basecoat with a red tinted clearcoat. So much depth, I feel like I could wade through it.

Nope, the windshields go on top of the paint, but the requirements for the windshield affect the paint process.

Plastic panels are a whole bucket of issues in themselves. As far as I know, the color matching plastic panels are painted using a different process. That means the the front and rear fascia (bumper) of your vehicle are painted in a differe

Silicone oils caused the paint to "run away", like putting soap in a greasy pot. Droplets were enough to cause problems - there's no hiding problems on a car's paint job and customers are VERY demanding.

Yea, everyone in that shop was a little crazy, but we were never sure which way the causality pointed.

I used to work in an automotive paint shop. Another point of interest: There's a limit on the number of tries you have to "repair" the paint job, because the vehicle has to go through the oven again to bake the coatings. The

I used to work in an automotive paint shop. When our exhaust scrubber (burner) went down, we had to stop painting cars. We had a 'budget' of VOC exhaust per year. I don't know when that went in, I imagine in the 80's or

Someone pointed out that lack of growth is treated as decline in our culture/economy. So the threat of climate change in Florida is that real estate prices will stop growing - that breaks a fundamental assumption - line goes up - and t

Not at any given point in time, but yes, over the long run. In other words, there is a long tail, and the end of that tail represents less than half of cars, but the tail is getting longer, so when todays 12.5 year old cars get to 25, the t

Yea, it's hard to imagine now, but they didn't all have the benefit of hindsight that we do. Many people were very proud of their service in WWII and Korea, and they passed that pride on to their kids. WWI was still in living memo

It's interesting to me that we debate economic ideas from the mercantile age. Economics is a meta-game, the game has changed significantly over the last 200 years. But we are taught economics in a historical context, not in a future co
