Sometimes, the right texture can make all the difference.  Dropping a 
color map, a bump map, or even an image map onto a metalic texture can 
change the whole look of an object.

Bondo is a putty compound used to fill dents and dings on automobiles. 
 When it's sanded, primed, and painted, it looks the same as any other 
surface... but in the American South, you often see good ol' boys 
driving around in old jalopys with either spots of raw bondo, or sanded 
and primed, but not painted bondo.

I figure, if a 'mech got into a dust-up, got some dings on it, the 
maintenance boys'd probably use something like bondo... and if they mech 
had to go out again the next day, they might not have time to paint it 
before it went out.
