How to Protect Automobile Paint Correctly

Rust often appears on the surface of car paint. In addition to the common collisions and scratches, pebbles bouncing off the tires when driving will also cause peeling spots on the paint, which will produce small rust spots after a long time. And these small scars are easily overlooked because they are mostly in inconspicuous places. Therefore, we should regularly check the car body, engine hood and around the car body. Once found, we should go to a professional beauty shop for treatment in time.

Tip 2: Always check the humidity in the area prone to water accumulation.

It is inevitable that vehicles will encounter rain and snow or pass through muddy and stagnant sections. Sludge is easy to accumulate in some gaps such as the bottom of the car body and the floor inside the car. If the owner doesn't clean it in time, it will hide moisture. Therefore, the inner and outer edges of the wheel hub, the bottom corner of the door and trunk, the keyhole of the door and the moving parts of the wiper frame should be checked frequently, and at the same time, the drainage holes of various parts of the door and body should be kept clear, and the humidity of the interior covering of the car (such as carpet) should be checked to prevent the floor parts from rusting.

Tip 3: Seal glaze and soft paint.

When some vehicles with soft paint are driving at high speed, sand particles may also cause subtle marks when they hit the body. For this kind of car, the body can be sealed with glaze, which can form a solid protective film and improve the hardness of the paint surface, and the effect can be maintained for about one year. The coating can also achieve a similar effect. In addition, the bottom of the vehicle can be armored or molded, which can protect the chassis from acid rain and corrosion, make the original protective layer not easy to crack and fall off, and prevent pebbles from hitting the chassis during driving.

Tip 4: It is best not to cover the clothes inside the car.

If the vehicle is parked outdoors, if it encounters windy and rainy weather, the inner layer of the car coating will whip the car paint repeatedly, especially if the wind and sand blow into the car coating, it will draw countless tiny scratches on the car body, which will also lead to black paint over time. In addition, after the sandstorm, do not directly clean the sand on the car body with a rag or rag, but rinse it with clear water to prevent the rag and the sand on the rag from scratching the paint surface.

Tip 5: Deal with small rust spots yourself.

For some slight scratches or rust that have appeared on the car body, if the owner leaves them behind, it will rust easily, but it is not worth spending in the car beauty shop. Then, the owner can do it himself and deal with it in some simple ways.

Tip 6: The touch-up pen can handle scratches.

If the rust is not very serious, you can first gently grind off the rust with very fine water sandpaper dipped in water, but don't grind it indiscriminately, but polish it in the same direction. After wiping completely, apply a layer of primer. If it is a new scratch, it can be cleaned and directly primed. After that, if the vehicle is equipped with small cans of original paint, you can wait for the primer to dry, then smooth it with water sandpaper and apply the original paint on the primer. If there is no original paint, you can buy a touch-up pen and use it to color. Although this treatment is not as effective as going to a beauty shop, it can also prevent rust from expanding and aggravating if it is a small or inconspicuous scar.

Tip 7: Toothpaste can temporarily prevent rust.

Treat with ordinary toothpaste. When you find a new small scar, gently circle it with toothpaste and apply it to the scratch. Don't forget to apply it again after it rains or washes the car. Doing so can generally reduce scratches and traces, and can also simply play an isolation role to prevent rust, which is no problem in the short term. Especially white car paint, the effect is the most obvious.
