On the subject of future car paint, there's also this: http://www.gizmag.com/self-healing-car-paint/11254/. The two of these products if they could be used together would be pretty amazing.

Doesn't the GT-R use self healing paint?

Even if this stuff can't be used for car paint it'd be a godsend for rims!! Imagine no brake dust build up! Even if there is some you'll be able to clean it with a hose!

Good point, I hope I hear when, or if, this stuff will be ever available to the public. Whatever's left after I coat my wheels is going to cover everything else I own.

Opti-coat and the other nano sealant like it are basically the same thing and have been out for more than a year. Just opti coated my hood and wate will NOT stick to it. Neither will bugs. Plus last 2 years
