True or False: Paramagnetic Paint?

There are a myriad of myths and misconceptions associated with the process of painting a car. One of these myths is paramagnetic paint, which has been discussed on the Internet for a long time in special forums for motorists. People are not interested in the price of painting and not in how such a coating works, but in the plausibility of the fact that such a paint really exists. At the moment, there are many arguments confirming the reality of such a paint material and refuting it.

What is paramagnetic paint?
On the Internet, you can find a large number of photos and videos where a car painted using paramagnetic technology changes its body color in a matter of seconds. It is difficult to believe in such magical metamorphoses, since it looks more like a computer game than reality.

Hypothetically, such a paint can provide a number of benefits due to its unusual effect. But if you seriously begin to be interested in buying this miraculous enamel, then there is not a single reliable car dealership or online brand store that would offer its sale and would not arouse suspicion. This is also very strange, but it’s better to deal with everything in order.

Changing the color of a car is a very responsible decision. But with the help of scientific advances, a wonderful paramagnetic paint was invented. Thanks to it, the driver can quickly change the color of the body of his car at any time by simply pressing a button on a special remote control. This requires neither electricity, nor chemicals, nor any other external influences.

This technology is widely advertised. There is no end to satisfied car owners, and the price of such paint is not much more expensive than usual. What is paramagnetic technology? It is assumed that, in addition to painting, a special magnet is installed on the car body. It is he who is able to act on the enamel in such a way that it can instantly change its color.

The coating itself is durable, does not get dirty, does not fade, almost does not scratch. The painting process is no more complicated than standard painting with regular paint. Dozens of colors and shades become available in one press of the remote control button, radically changing the appearance of the car.

All this would be good if it were not a lie.

There is no such technology, and never has been. Of course, there is a similar temperature-dependent paint, which, under the influence of low or high temperatures, is capable of changing its shade. But it is incredibly expensive and not sold every step of the way. Moreover, there can be no talk of any remotes and dozens of different colors. Read about which paint changes color from temperature in a special article.

Why doesn’t this paint exist?
Several facts can be cited to prove that paramagnetic paint does not exist:

There are no materials in nature that have the ability to change their color under the influence of a magnetic field. Scientists also failed to artificially synthesize such a substance.

Doubtful online retailers sell such paint at suspiciously low prices. There are no official dealers of such technology neither in our country, nor in the near abroad, nor even in the United States, where this painting material was allegedly invented. If there was a manufacturer, he would have set an exorbitantly high price for such an invention.

There are no statements from any world auto concern, even in passing, concerning the possible use of paint of this kind on their cars. This is very strange, because such a technology can cause an increase in demand for the company’s products.

You can find reviews of those people who allegedly applied a paramagnetic coating to their car, but they all turn out to be false. These are the tricks of scammers who are trying to cash in on gullible customers.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that scientists are working hard to invent such a technology, and someday it will still appear. But now the color-changing machine is just a fiction on which dishonest people are trying to make money.
