It is best not to expose the car to rain after crystal coating and to keep it dry for more than 24 hours. However, if it does get rained on, there is no major issue—just avoid washing the car. Below is some relevant information: 1. Crystal Coating: This is a hard protective coating specifically designed for key areas of the car, such as the paint surface, glass, tires, rims, seats, engine, interior, and exterior trim. 2. Principle: The fundamental requirement for crystal coating is that the material used is SIO2 inorganic. It forms several molecular-level structures on the applied surface, typically at the nanoscale. Through the action of high-molecular polymers, it creates a barrier layer on the surface. This layer has functions such as UV resistance, oil resistance, low surface energy, and hydrophobicity, thereby protecting the paint surface.

Where is the Air Conditioning Filter in a New Energy Vehicle?

The air conditioning filter in a new energy vehicle is located in front of the passenger seat, beneath the glove compartment. Functions of the Air Conditioning Filter: It ensures the filter fits tightly against the housing, preventing unfiltered air from entering the cabin. It separates solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air. It adsorbs moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2, etc., from the air, providing strong and long-lasting moisture adsorption. It prevents the car windows from fogging up, ensuring clear visibility for the driver and passengers and safe driving. It supplies fresh air to the cabin, preventing occupants from inhaling harmful gases and ensuring driving safety. It also effectively sterilizes and deodorizes. Cleaning the Air Conditioning Filter: The filter easily accumulates dust, which can be removed using compressed air or similar methods. Never wash it with water, as this can easily damage it. Over time, the activated carbon filtration function of the air conditioning filter diminishes, so it is recommended to replace the filter at a 4S shop.
