When it comes to car washing, the first reaction of many people is are you kidding us? Indeed, car washing is a easy thing, have no more technical requirement. But here i wants to say there are still many details to pay attention to when washing the car. If you don’t pay attention to the it, you will be seriously injured your car. Next, let’s talk about some mistakes we need to avoid when washing the car.
1. Wash the car under hot sun
Under strong sunshine at noon, you must not want to come out to wash the car. Wait until the evening is cool, and then wash the car. You are comfortable and your car is comfortable also. Washing the car in the hot sun also hurts the car paint, because after the car is exposed to the sun, splashing cold water will damage the body paint. Over time, the car paint will lose luster. Therefore, the car washing in summer must be carried out under the shelter or small sun in the morning and evening.
2.Using Wash powder to wash car
Many car owners wash their cars with washing powder to save trouble. Of course, most car owners will not buy professional car cleaners when washing their cars, but choose to use daily cleaning products instead. In fact, this is a very bad habit. Because the pH of these daily cleaning products is different, they are very corrosive to the car paint. In the long run, the car will be injured.
3. Directly wash with high-pressure water gun
When washing the car, many car owners will choose to wash the car with a high-pressure water gun and then scrub it slowly. This is a mistake! Because after a period of driving, there will be dust or small particles on the surface of the car. If these dust are directly sprayed with a high-pressure water gun or wiped with a rag instead of being washed with clean water before washing the car, these dust will make a “friction movement” on the paint surface and damage the paint surface of the car body. Just like brushing the delicate skin of your car with a hairbrush, you can imagine the harmful of your car.
4. No car washing in rainy season
When in the rainy season. Many car owners are unwilling to wash the car. They think the rain has washed the car clean and there is no need to wash it again. In fact, these ideas are wrong. Because the rain is acidic, if you don’t wash the car as soon as possible, the light rain will erode the paint, and the heavy rain will even corrode the car chassis, resulting in vehicle failure.
5. Frequent car washing
In general, it is more appropriate to wash the car once a week. If the car is washed too frequently, the oxidation of the paint will be accelerated to a great extent, which will lead to dull and tarnish of the paint.
