By toggling a switch on your dashboard, you can change the exterior color of your car to any color you desire at the moment. It’s done by utilizing what they call a “paramagnetic iron oxide paint polymer.” By utilizing an electric current, the iron oxide paint crystals can be slightly rearranged causing a different angle of refraction (still with me?) which fools the eye into thinking that the color is different. The metal car body is the perfect conductor for the charge.
Unfortunately, when the current is cut off (you park the car), it all slips back to the default color of white. That’s not too bad as long as you’re the first one in town with an electric paint job. But eventually you’ll come out of the office and look onto a parking lot filled with hundreds of white cars.
