Virtual painting!

Found this on the Emercedes site. http://www.emercedesbenz.com/Dec06/...Of_Painting_Process_Optimizes_Production.html
It explains in great detail how Mercedes uses computer modeling / simulation to determine how to paint their cars. I had to smile bearing in mind the paint problems some forum members have had. The phrase " you cant see the wood for the trees" comes to mind.
