Meet the EcoPaintJetPro, a paint shop robot that can lay down finishes and designs on a vehicle without the need for covering the automobile. The machine was made by BMW and Duerr, a German engineering firm. According to BMW, “the EcoPaintJet Pro leaves no overspray, saving them time, money, water, and chemicals of cleanup. It's also more efficient, not requiring electrostatic paints, nor that the paints be physically separated as in a traditional paint shop, and it takes less energy to apply two paints at once.”

Wait and see what it will be able to do in a few jears form now, when introduciung the 5 colour printhead.. Unfortunately this may be the end of many paint-shop boys as soon as you may be able to fast print anything in nearly notime.. and depending on the precision you may not even have to cover the lamps and stuff when paintiny your car with anyting you want..
