I’m more curious about how long the paint will last since you need to leave the car under the sun as long as possible.

Perhaps using a "paint" that generates power is an option? Something that can be layered onto a surface, has high durability and converts sunlight to electricity. Some problems arise immediately, e.g., routing of current, safety, etc. But its a metaphor that might be useful.
