Why do you need to maintain car paint?


It is undeniable that people always evaluate the value of a car from the appearance of the car, especially the gloss of the car paint.

However, most people generally park their cars in the open air, and let the cars be exposed to the erosion of corrosive substances such as wind, sun, acid rain, bird droppings, tree sap, etc. If they are not maintained, over time It will make the paint surface rough and dull.

In addition, many human factors can also cause damage to the paint surface. For example, when the car is collided or scratched by other objects or vehicles while driving, the paint surface will also be damaged.

Therefore, it is very important to maintain your car paint in order to:

Keep the vehicle clean and tidy

Slow down the aging process

Prevent paint peeling off

Regular car washes are essential to keep your car in top condition.

How often does a car need to be washed? Experts recommend washing your car every two weeks. If you frequently go to industrial areas or near the sea, the number of car washes will increase, because the heavy metals in the air or the salt of the sea breeze will corrode the metal and cause rust.

In addition to washing the car, how can car owners protect the coat of the car and make the car look shiny and like a new car?

Car paint maintenance tips

1. Car wash after rain

For some lazy car owners, generally do not spend money to wash the car, but wait for the rain to wash the car.

Can you really "wash your car for free" when it rains?

Don't be naive! Rain does wash off the surface of a car, but there are a number of potential problems.

Rain not only won't make the car clean, but it can also damage the paint. Some impacts may not be felt right away, but over time, they can become major problems.

Harmful effects of rain on car paint

1.The body is rusted: The moisture of the rain will make the iron sheet under the car paint rust, and when it is serious to a certain extent, it will cause the paint to fall off.

2.Corrosion to car paint: The chemical particles suspended in the air will fall with the rain, thus turning into corrosive acid rain, which will corrode the car paint surface for a long time.

3. Sand and gravel friction: When it rains, due to the scouring of the rain and the water splashed on the car paint surface when other vehicles are driving, many small gravels remain on the car body after the rain. If the car owner wipes the car with a rag at this time, the small and hard particles will scratch the car body, and after a long time, many scratches will be found.

Therefore, if the car is exposed to the rain, remember to wash the car after the rain, so as not to cause unintentional damage caused by the rain remaining on the paint surface of the car.

2. Waxing

Waxing is to add an extra layer of protection to the car paint. Its function is to prevent water, acid rain, high temperature and ultraviolet rays, and also effectively prevent the car paint from aging.

Car waxes on the market can be divided into: solid wax, soft wax and water wax.

The texture of solid wax is hard, the finish is the highest after waxing, and the effect is the best for a long time. Soft wax and water wax are convenient and labor-saving to use, and can be easily done with a rag, but the effect is worse than that of solid wax, and the retention time is also shorter.

Don't rush out of the car that has just been waxed. After exposure to the sun, the wax surface is difficult to wipe, and if it gets dusty, it will wipe out scratches.

Waxing should not be too frequent. It is recommended to wax every one or two months, generally 6 to 12 times a year. Different driving environments and parking locations have different waxing times. If you drive frequently and are exposed to wind and rain, it is best to wax once a month.

3. Wipe the car with a special car cloth

Do not use a cloth to wipe your car, it is best to use a soft microfiber cloth to wipe the car.

If you use a hard, old cloth, it will pick up sand and dust, which will cause tiny scratches on your car.

4.Car Coating

Car coating refers to spraying the sprayed product on the car with a special spray gun on the basis of polishing, and then using a sponge to evenly coat the coated product on the car body by a special method.

Car coatings help to help the car paint surface resist oxidation and aging, and also isolate corrosive substances such as acid rain and bird droppings. From the surface, the hardness and smoothness of the paint surface are increased, and the anti fouling performance is improved. It provides all-round protection for the car from less severe scratches, as well as a complete refurbishment of older cars, enhancing color and brightness.
