Tree sap can typically corrode car paint in about a week. Tree sap contains a certain level of acidity, and prolonged attachment to the car can damage the paint. Below is relevant information: Advantages of car paint: The paint film has good fullness, high gloss, high hardness, and excellent adhesion. It possesses superior mechanical properties, outstanding gloss retention, weather resistance, and abrasion resistance, along with good resistance to acids, alkalis, alcohol, and gasoline. Classification of car paint: Car paint can generally be divided into standard paint, metallic paint, and pearl paint. Standard paint is the most basic type, usually in white and red, with a pure overall color. Metallic paint, based on standard paint, incorporates metal powders such as aluminum and copper to enhance texture. Pearl paint, similar to metallic paint but more dazzling, adds mica particles to metallic paint, creating a radiant effect under sunlight.
