Norwood brought in several privately owned 1967 Camaros in for display in 1977 after armor-all became popular. Fish eyes began showing up in paint within hours and the plant lost nearly two days of production until they figured out the problem. Cars were removed and the plant implemented a ban on all non GM sponsored displays in the future unless the cars were outside in areas approved by engineering.
This became less of a problem with high solids enamel and electro static paint systems implemented in 1982.
