Comment on Tesla's Cybertruck may not be so stainless after all

Yeah that certainly reinforces a sense of longevity. Just rub off part of the door every time you have to clean it.

It’s sad that there’s nothing your can put on the metal, like something to paint on top of it or something. Like something clear, or in different colors even. Ah here I go again, being crazy with my imagination.

Apparently clear coat would also corrode the steel. This car annoys every last one of my redneck sensibilities.

That’s … What is it made of? Raw sodium? How is there nothing they can put on it to seal it from corrosion?

That’s what buffing does to paint as well, but it’s not something you do when you need to clean it (whether paint or stainless), it’s something you do to repair cosmetic damage.
