Clay bar does not damage car paint. It has the function of removing dirt without harming the surface paint of the vehicle. This is because clay bars are made of ultra-fine fibers and solid colloid through repeated intensive mixing. Characteristics of clay bars: 1. After repeated wiping by car wash workers, it can remove fine pores and spots caused by oxidation on the vehicle body; 2. It can adhere to and remove natural oxidation, water stains, residues from car washing, and improper care on the vehicle body. In mechanical processing, for fine machining, tiny metal residues left on metal surfaces can be removed using clay bars, which is widely applied in precision machining workshops. Additionally, in the automotive repair industry, clay bars are also extensively used in the field of painting.

Is it okay for a motorcycle to be exposed to the sun for a day?

It can affect the appearance and safety of the motorcycle. Here are some related details: 1. Hazards caused by exposure: Paint may peel. Some rubber and plastic parts may age prematurely, shortening the lifespan of the motorcycle. If the tire pressure is high, there is a risk of explosion. 2. Maintenance methods: Flammable and explosive items such as lighters, cans, and paper should not be left directly on the motorcycle under the sun, as they can easily ignite or explode under direct sunlight, causing the vehicle to catch fire. Under high temperatures, the sun's ultraviolet radiation can easily damage the surface paint. Try to park the motorcycle in a shaded area. Each time you park, check for residue like sticky insect glue and dust on the paint surface. Applying glaze is also a good method for sun protection, preventing the motorcycle's paint from being directly exposed to the elements and providing UV protection.

Why does the car still slide forward when in N gear?

Incorrect gear selection; park in P gear, as N gear is neutral and lacks parking functionality. N gear: Neutral gear typically refers to the state where the vehicle's gear lever is not engaged in any forward or reverse gear position, completely disconnecting the transmission from the drive wheels. In manual transmissions, the neutral position is in the middle, while in automatic transmissions, it is marked with an 'N'. P gear: A special neutral gear that mechanically locks the transmission output shaft to secure the vehicle, functioning as a parking brake to prevent movement. This is the most common gear in automatic transmission vehicles, usually located at the foremost position on the gear shift console, ahead of the R gear, designed to lock the axle when the car is stationary on a slope. P gear is specifically used for long-term parking in automatic transmission cars.
