Donald Duck - Wet Paint 1946 #4 < 2024-2026 >

Critics and fans generally view "Wet Paint" as a solid, though perhaps not groundbreaking, example of Donald's mid-40s era.

The short begins with Donald meticulously re-painting his red car by hand. His progress is thwarted by a persistent bird named , who lands on the wet paint and tracks it everywhere. What starts as an annoyance escalates into a full-scale battle. Susie continuously sabotages the paint job—unintentionally at first, as she is only looking for threads and materials for her nest—leading to a series of escalating gags where Donald's car ends up stripped of paint, covered in handprints, and eventually draped in seat stuffing that makes it look like a sheepdog.
