Wait, they really weren't painted?

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 months ago

From what I've read, that's an optional add-on. Costs a few thousand dollars more.

Stain-less, not stain-free

Sorry English is not my main language can u explain it please I have the feeling it's a joke but I don't get it ... What's the difference between stain less and stain free ... Both are without stains right?..

The other two comments have it right. "Stainless" would generally be read as "free from stains", but the material really isn't free from stains, it just rusts slower than most other types of steel. It's sort of a pun that stainless steel merely "stains less", and isn't completely free from it.

Thanks now I get it 👍🏻

I think it's meant as a joke ("less" as in "fewer").

In all seriousness though, stainless steel still gets rust, it's just much more resistant to it. From what I've read in comments, Tesla used a cheaper grade of stainless steel that is less resistant.

That's interesting thank you 👍🏻

Stain-less could mean "without stains" the joke is that there are still stains, there's just less of them.

It's a joke, but not really, because stainless steel does indeed rust under certain conditions or certain alloys. I hear "stain-less, not stain-proof"
