I saw this while driving to work this morning. Yet another use for good old duct tape. Topping it off is the aerosol can paint job!

Apparently...his IP checks out to around Villahermosa in the state of Tabasco in Mexico. The duct tape must be a pain if you lean back and get your hair stuck in it. LOL.
 
About 100 miles east of Villa in Campeche state. The dude driving that was too short to get his hair caught, but if he has a wife......hahaha.
 
Saw a kid a while back who covered his old Volvo with Duct tape. I think it was his way of changing the color from white to silver. one of the doors was missing so that is how I knew it had been white.

Pretty durable stuff. In the late '70's, a fella piloting the Bubble Up Firebird flopper, Gordie Bonin hit 240 in the 1/4 mile with a rear spoiler duct taped on. He officially became "240 Gordie", and duct tape officially became "240 MPH tape". Of course, not real long after that, Ray Beadle hit 260 in the Blue Max runnin the 1/4 and shattered his windshield. No duct tape involved in that run, but afterwards Ray said, "I knew I must've been goin fast when the windshield shattered, but didn't know it was that fast", then he grinned and walked away. I wonder if he shouldn't have duct taped it back together just to test its durability. Too late now, I guess.

Good stuff. Wish I owned the patent on it.

Some soldiers here last summer were goofing around while a buddy was putting a mirror on his car. It was a different color than the car and he had to run for some kind of detail. He asked his buddy to tape the car off a little so he could spray the mirror when he came back. His buddy got 3 or 4 more guys from the barracks and they bought up all the masking tape the PX had. When the guy came back, the entire car except for the mirror was taped up. With a big smile cut into the windshield. Not a happy camper...
