James Bond Peelable Automobile Paint

Anonymous Coward writes "Akzo Nobel has developed a unique temporary paint system which can peeled off after use. Known as Maskin, the product can be applied to any non-porous surface, such as a vehicle body or windows, without risk of damage to the original finish. Maskin (a combination of the words mask and skin) is available in eight basic colors, plus one transparent film, and can be mixed to create a wide spectrum of shades. When no longer required, the film can be peeled and disposed of using standard paint waste removal methods."

Wash Off Paint

[codepunk]

When I am not spending insane amounts of time behind a keyboard I pick up my second favorite tool (airbrush) and do some custom painting. I use a automotive paint called Auto Air which is a water based product. If you make a mistake with this stuff you just spray on a little amonia and water (I use windex) and this stuff just runs right off. To make it permenant you clear coat it with a urethane clear which penetrates and seals it from damage. I could imagine spraying a entire car with it then going to the local car wash and wasing it right off as long as it was not cleared.

Beyond 2000 had this years ago..

Anyone remember the "Beyond 2000" show on discovery a few years ago? They had a feature on some of the coolest things, like rimless wheels, and a real-time audio system that replaced the rattling buzzing 4-cylinder noise from your car and substituted the rumble of an american V8 in its place. They did a feature on a peelable finish, by rolling the finish onto a Lamborghini, then peeling it off, showing the original paint beneath.
