A car painted entirely with side-swipe looking paint
"scratches" in
order to avoid accusations that your vehicle has damaged
another vehicle's paint. Also works the other way round if
the
body's made of titanium.

Titanium can be scratched by materials with a lower
relative hardness, as can many other 'hard' things, like
tungsten and diamond. |
|
| |
//lower relative hardness// as distinct from lower
absolute hardness? |

If only a paints' pigment was also friction activated,
then it
could be a convolution of guilts' placement: If a
vehical's
verdical-paint contained alternate pigments with
properties that'd catalyze; mixed (along with
squished-heat
generated) when sideswipe incidented. |

It is plausibly deniable that my "car" has a paint job. (The quotes are due to the absence of enhanced mobility as traditionally implied by the word). |
|
| |
The titanium was an afterthought. |
|
| |
Anyway, it occurs to me that if there is for some
reason a vertical scratch it will be very obvious. It
also occurs to me that paint could include
microscopic numbered glass beads like smart water. |

[MB], I'm normally not one to concede a perfectly good
semantics argument (the more trivial, the better!), but I
gotta hand it to ya, ya got me. |

Some people have relatives who are hard enough to
key a titanium car. |
