Good point, but depending upon the type of paint used, a year may not always be enough. I have a friend who had his car painted, and he took it off the road and put it in storage after 18 months. He covered it with a fancy blanket while in storage. When he took the blanket off a year later, you could see the imprint of the blanket in the paint. Had to wet sand and reclear the car.
