Interesting subject! Paint can cause several points of consideration in an automobile, like what Kube states above. Many of us have found-out the hard way that paint can insulate electrical GROUND circuits or surfaces. And interestingly, depending on how much painted surface, and how many coats and what types have been applied to such, you can end-up adding some noticeable weight to a vehicle. It's not unheard of, depending on paint scheme, for some of the largest wide-body airline type aircraft to end-up with over a thousand pounds of paint being applied to one airplane. DD
