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?
They couldve probably galvanized it, but didnt because they are stupid. The type of stainless steel they used is finicky at best as I understand and isnt really designed to be in open outdoor environments, so they used it for a car. I dont fully understand the details of why its fucky just that it is, I aint a metallurgical expert im a redneck who just knows what is good steel from texture, taste, and smacking it into shit.
