Read the news, or listened to The Beatles?

So it's more than 3x thicker than normal color coat?

Maybe we should mandate white cars by law, you know, to help the global warming.

What part of sunlight causes the most warming? I'd expect infrared, but I never thought to ask before. Clear coats absorb UV, so if that causes warming then that's no good.
