The old clear coat. What did they use?

i am watching this old movie from 1963 in black and white:

The Yesterday Machine (1963)

It’s dubbed over like a vcr from tv to YouTube.

The clear coat on what I believe are Chryslers or Dodges is phenomenal!

Was it lacquer or enamel?

Why is it sooo good?

There is a early 60’s ford Fairlane?
Next door with decent original paint.
It sits in the sun for years, not faded much.
Why does it last?
After 18:20 minutes or so
