Default Nitrous purge Question

I am installing a purge system and was wondering if anyone has problems with it getting on there paint. Sorry if this is a stupid quesiton. Just wondering if it evaporates before falling when purged over the car. Or if it leaves any residue.

I have my purge coming out to go over my windshield between the windshield wipers. No paint involved....but to answer your question, im not sure if it will hurt your paint. Im sure if it gets real cold it will harm it....
