Is there some reason why passenger planes started out all metallic and then gradually got more and more covered in paint?

one of the reasons that modern aircraft are completely painted as it acts as a protective layer for the surfaces of the aircraft skin. Many of them aren’t even metal anymore. Some are completely composite.
