No wonder GM s going broke
Now lets work that out...$60,000 per gallon to protect the surface of the carbon fibre.
The price of carbon over the counter $40 per mtr or by the roll $17 per mtr a couple of ltrs of resin around $50 ...couple of man hours to make the part ...then well spray $60k on it so the sun won't determinate it. Sounds like a top exec decision to me.

Clear acrylic would do the same job for about 50 bucks
Unless it has NANO technology hhhhooo.
