Could this be the reason for "factory-scratched" Acuras?

When I worked for GM at the GMT360 assembly plant (Trailblazer, Envoy, etc...) everyone in the factory had to wear velcro padded things around any kind of metal on them. They were also not allowed to wear jewelry, watches, etc while working on the line either. Obviously you can't take away their belts, but the padded velcro straps went around the buckle and kept it from scratching the vehicles. I also know that the Honda plants here in the U.S. do the same thing...

 

Imagine the damage if one of Flavor Flav's clocks fell from around his neck and onto a car. YaaaaaaaaaBooooooy!!!! Hahaha!!
