It is not recommended to cover the car with a car cover when the body is wet, as it can leave water stains over time, which are not easy to remove. Typically, water stains can only be treated through car detailing and polishing processes. Additionally, prolonged exposure to moisture on the paint surface can accelerate oxidation. Moreover, covering a wet car with a car cover makes it difficult for the moisture to evaporate, which may lead to rusting of internal components over time. Here are some methods to deal with scratches on the car: 1. Hairline scratches: Hairline scratches can usually be removed by polishing or applying a rubbing compound. A simple wipe is often enough to make them disappear. 2. Light scratches: For light scratches that haven’t damaged the car’s primer, toothpaste can be very effective. It works particularly well on marks left by other vehicles’ paint or adhesive residues from stickers, often cleaning them completely. 3. Medium to deep scratches: Medium and deep scratches cannot be fixed by polishing. If the dent is small (less than 5mm), it can be filled with putty, leveled, and then repainted.
