Tip of the day:
Take a belt sander to your car with 60 grit sand paper, strip all the paint and decrease vehicle weight to get better gas milage.
Or, when they commercialize this technology and used it to paint your car, you might save 4kgs of weight.
According to a fuel efficiency chart, 50kg of weight increase will reduce efficiency by 1%, probably more but we will work with that.
4kgs reduction in weight is about 0.08% savings. On my car, I have to fill up every two weeks. So, on my schedule, saving 0.08% on a fill because I changed paints would work out to be 0.052 litres of gas. That’s about 1.35 litres of savings a year and about 20litres over my car’s lifetime.
Not enough to do anything about it, but I would not say no to going with that paint as an option if I was buying that care brand new
