No, this is wrong. Race cars have always been painted beautifully. They have always been used for commercial purposes. If a perfectly finished scale race car wins a competition do you always hear: "This is not how it should look like". Exactly what I also used to say as a bad excuse after having lost to a perfectly finished car in endless numbers of competitions. I stopped used this excuse after acquiring the technique to make an excellent finish.
