They're very portable, so you can carry them around with you in case you come up with an idea of something to write on your Tesla while you're out and about. They stick to the surface quite well and don't wash off in the rain.

(Please try not to succumb to the temptation to write "F**k off Nazi Scum" or similar on somebody else's though like other people are suggesting. That might encourage people not to buy Teslas, which is a shame, because they're great American cars.)

What happened to "See a Nazi punch a Nazi"? Why are we playing coy?

See a Tesla, vandalize a Tesla.

Anyone driving one is at best Nazi adjacent and need to learn a lesson on why they shouldn't be.

Edit:

It is actually disturbing how many people here are okay with supporting a Nazi. Every one of you needs to get your head right.

Fucking disgraceful.

While I think this is a fair opinion for all recent swastikars, I know several people who bought a Tesla a decade ago when it still seemed like a positive. They all abhor Musk but are not in a financial position to trade in their paid-off cars for anything else.

I have only verified that the paint markers work on Cybertrucks, not older models of Tesla.

I think I read somewhere that brake fluid is a fairly reliable means of stripping paint. A design or message of some type might emerge from a judicious application of such liquid.

Telling random people to “just buy another car” is such an elitist, out of touch take. Also, who’s supposed to buy those used Teslas? If nobody wants to buy them, nobody can sell them.

I hadn't considered that one before

Someone who bought a Tesla before, who is trying to sell it now, may have to sell it to someone who supports Musk. At a loss at that

Sell their houses to who Ben? FUCKING AQUAMAN!?

Oh he's going further. He's saying no one even needs a car.

Pure, privileged delusion.

I'm not sure that would work on the cybertrucks """bullet proof""" windows, they are laminated, and this trick typically only works on tempered glass.

@The_Che_Banana @Arkouda

I know people who have sold their Tesla(proud of you) but not everyone can afford a new car. Especially if the resale value plummets. People buying NEW Tesla though...

If you carry a piece of grit 120 and a dual barrel tube of clear epoxy, you can make your Tesla really stand out for a long time.

If you have epoxy left over you can fix your squeaky doors by applying as much glue as you have along the door. That way the door will stop squeaking on account of it not being used as much.

Well, if you're going to make a permanent mod to your Tesla, make sure to avoid cutting any of the numerous cameras that record what you're doing all the time.

If you're going to buy an angle grinder, and you value your eyes and hands, at the very least choose a brand that isn't six random capital letters.

Honestly just a sheet of coarse grit sandpaper would do the trick. Would take all of about three seconds to scratch a big ol swastika on the back of a swasticar.

...it's like the automotive version of carving a swastika onto the foreheads of the Nazis in Inglorious Basterds, lol.
