New Custom Paint Job

I know so many people are raging like monkeys over opti-coat. Frankly I am sick of all these new technologies. I put my tax dollars to work and got together behind a public works truck and got a new egg shell matte finish and undercoating.

The protection is unrivaled.
Here are some quotes from local women:

Quote:
DARCY HUGHS

I am a mother of 10, normally when I see a red car like that I think small genitals but that new eggshell finish has me questioning the man behind the wheel of that Sceeon.

JAGARUTI PATEL

I did not know they make Corolla two door.
Quote:
CAROL STEMS

My Husband drives a brown F350 he could tow your house, but that new two toned red and eggshell paint job makes me want to tow you onto my lap.

BERNARD BRICE

I like how the new paint hides your leaking tail lights, nice touch brah.

There's women in Illinois named Bernard?

I'd say you need to get to a touchless car wash but...I don't think that's the safest bet. I'm sorry you have to deal with this sir.

I thought so too, but I've never seen buildup like that on my 30+ years of driving, hence the reason for my question

Not where. What? Is that really salt?

Mine looked like that a few hours ago - then I washed it. I kept thinking that my poor baby is being eaten alive by the nasty salt (even though I have a rust inhibitor module). Was only getting the odd glance, but, then 3x more looks now that it's clean.

And that is why I don't live up north anymore. Thanks for showing me what my car looks like with salt all over it, I think I'll pass :happy0180:
