Nissan has been working on its self-healing clearcoat technology called Scratch Shield for more than seven years. While it’s been applied to the company’s cars for four years now, it’s first non-automotive application is here: an iPhone case.

Called the Nissan Scratch Shield iPhone case, it appears aimed at the doubly-retentive types who not only don’t like their phone getting scratched, but also don’t even like their cases to show whatever wear. The healing finish is applied to an ABS-plastic case, so that the case protects the smartphone and the Scratch Shield protects the case. Nissan claims some other gain is that the glossy finish is easier to grip.

It’s in beta-trial now, but if real-world testing brings accolades it could go on sale later this year – hopefully with some more subtle choices of branding.
