How to maintain car paint

Car washing, waxing, glaze sealing, coating, glass coating, invisible car cover, etc. They are all car paint maintenance products. No matter what kind of car, paint maintenance can't escape the above. If you buy a new car and find the paint difficult to maintain, and don't know where to start, then let's discuss these paint maintenance methods first.

First of all, the paint surface of our vehicle is actually composed of four layers. The first layer is electrophoretic phosphating layer, which is unique to the original car paint (note that it is not the original car paint). This layer is a closed metal surface, which plays an anti-corrosion and anti-rust role. The second layer is the intermediate layer, which is what we usually call the intermediate primer. This layer is used as the background color to make the paint have better adhesion.

The third layer is painted paint, which is determined by the color of your car. The fourth layer is varnish, commonly known as varnish, colorless and transparent. Mainly to protect colored paint surface, improve luster and increase paint hardness. The maintenance of paint surface is a science. If the paint is well maintained and shiny, it will be very comfortable for a person to drive, and others will be impressed by you.

But how to maintain the paint surface is the best and most professional. Let's talk about the most basic car wash. To keep the paint clean, car washing is essential. Of course, the more times you wash your car, the better. Of course not. Too frequent car washing will lead to car washing marks on the paint.

Generally speaking, it is good to wash the car three or four times a month. Of course, the rainy season is another matter. At the same time, try not to put it under trees, air conditioners or range hoods in summer, so as not to damage the paint surface with chewing gum, air conditioning water and lampblack.

It turns out that most new cars need to be waxed first, but now new cars are covered with a layer of release paper. After tearing it off, wash off the glue with asphalt cleaner and apply new car wax. In order to prevent the car paint from being damaged during transportation, some vehicles will coat the surface with hard resin wax to protect the car paint, and they need to go to the car beauty salon to wax it after purchase.

Park the car in a safe place. The parking space is too small. Please don't act rashly without being sure. Please leave enough space in front, back, left and right to prevent others from accidentally scratching your car. When parking, pay attention to the dangerous buildings around. Sometimes even branches can damage the paint.

Remember, don't park at intersections, corners, etc. It is easy to cause traffic accidents. The traffic police will never show mercy to such illegal parking. Glass coating is an effective method to protect car paint at present. Its principle is to form a durable hard glass protective layer and ultraviolet filter layer on the surface of car paint.

The protective layer will not change its material due to sudden temperature change, which can improve the mirror gloss and hardness of the car paint surface and effectively prevent the damage of external harmful substances to the car paint. Compared with traditional manual waxing, this electronic coating is more closely combined with wax layer and car paint and lasts longer than manual waxing.

The effect of the coating can last for more than one year, but it is difficult to exceed two years. Glaze seal is also a high-grade wax pattern. Sealing and polishing every 3-4 months will make the maintenance effect more lasting and brighter than waxing. You can also use the vibration waxing machine to complete the glaze sealing project. Glaze wax molecules can further penetrate into the paint surface through vibration, forming a wax film of antirust layer.

As for the price, it will certainly be more expensive than just waxing. There are also many places to pay attention to in the daily maintenance of automobile paint. First of all, avoid cleaning the paint surface directly with a feather duster or a dry cloth. After washing the dust and dirt on the car surface with water, wipe it with a clean absorbent cloth, and don't let it dry by itself after washing.

Secondly, when parking, you should consider avoiding long exposure, especially white and non-metallic paint. Third, reduce the number of car washes and try not to wax and polish vehicles. Fourth, we should pay attention to the timely disposal of corrosive things such as bird droppings. Fifth, pay attention to reducing corrosive places when driving. Such as the seaside, roads dotted with melting snow, and newly paved asphalt roads. 6. After high-speed driving in summer, the insect bodies hit by the front of the car should be cleaned up in time. If it is not cleaned in time, the paint surface of the vehicle will be corroded in a short time, and the vehicle is a consumable. After a long time, paint aging is inevitable. Treat it with a normal heart, regardless of gains and losses.
