Self-healing paint





Nissan has developed a paint that can repair itself. According to the press release, Scratch Guard Coat contains an elastic resin that helps prevent scratches from affecting the inner layers of a car's painted surface. When scratched, the paint returns to its original state in between a day and a week, depending on temperature and the depth of the scratch.

Nissan says it will first use the paint on an SUV "that is scheduled for a partial makeover in the near future". The paint will be applied to areas such as the chassis, bumpers and door mirrors.
