The ETC cannot continue to be used after vehicle transfer. Because the vehicle information has changed, the ETC associated with the vehicle will become invalid. The original owner needs to cancel the previous ETC information, and the new owner needs to apply for a new ETC with the following documents: the new owner's ID card and its copy, the vehicle license and the last vehicle inspection record on it, and a debit card. The documents that the original owner needs to provide for a used car transfer include: the registration certificate, vehicle license, and ID card. The buyer needs to provide an ID card, and if they are from another city, they need a residence permit or temporary residence permit. For vehicle transfer, the first step is to conduct a vehicle evaluation. The evaluation fee is generally 1%-2% of the evaluated vehicle price, and other fees include the license plate, vehicle license, etc. The original vehicle's commercial insurance can be canceled (compulsory insurance cannot be canceled), or the insurance can be transferred to the buyer at the insurance company. Precautions for buying used cars: Incomplete procedures. The complete procedures for a used car include: vehicle registration certificate (or original purchase invoice), vehicle license, vehicle purchase tax payment certificate, road maintenance fee procedures, and compulsory insurance. If the vehicle registration certificate or vehicle license is missing, or if there are arrears in compulsory insurance or road maintenance fees, it will bring endless trouble to the buyer. Therefore, when buying a car, if the seller cannot provide complete procedures, consumers should be especially vigilant. Tampering with the odometer. Most consumers like to judge the condition of the car based on the odometer, and sellers often take advantage of this psychology to tamper with the odometer. In fact, the odometer is not only an indicator of usage intensity but also a recorder of the maintenance and replacement of other vehicle parts. If the buyer follows the maintenance schedule based on a tampered odometer, it will bring a series of potential safety hazards. New paint covering external injuries. When consumers choose a used car, if the car has been repainted and there are repair marks around the front face, rear, and A, B, and C pillars, the car is very likely to have been involved in a major accident. Adjusting the heart to raise the price. Many consumers often pay too much attention to the heart of the car (engine) when buying a car and ignore the health of the car body. Used car sellers take advantage of this psychology by replacing engine parts to make the heart of the car appear younger, thereby raising the price.

The Workflow of Car Polishing?

Use car shampoo to clean the surface of the car paint. It is essential to ensure that it is completely removed; otherwise, it may easily cause wear to the car paint during the grinding process. Then, select the appropriate water sandpaper, wet it, and perform a rough sanding on the car paint surface until the scratches are smoothed out. Begin the polishing process by choosing a suitable grinding machine and applying polishing wax. Polish the areas that were sanded in the second step. Perform mirror restoration by directly wiping the polished areas with a mirror treatment agent. This will give the car paint a mirror-like effect.

Can a Vehicle License Show if a Car is Second-Hand?

A vehicle license cannot indicate if a car is second-hand. Here are some considerations when buying a used car: 1. Pay attention to the appearance: Some used cars have been in accidents. To increase their value, dealers may refurbish them, repaint the car to make it look newer. Therefore, when purchasing a car, carefully inspect the exterior, check all corners and parts for signs of repainting, and look for wear on the tires, headlights, and bumpers. 2. Check the chassis and frame: After an accident, even if the exterior is well-repaired, the frame and chassis are difficult to restore. If you notice any deformation or bending, be cautious—this car might be an accident vehicle.
