If it is a large area of painting, it usually takes 2 to 3 days to pick up the car. If the painting area is very small, it can usually be picked up after one day. Vehicle painting process: Cleaning, identification, evaluation, and masking; masking and degreasing; removing old paint; applying putty; sanding putty and old coatings; degreasing and masking; applying primer; sanding intermediate primer. The role of vehicle painting: Cars are widely used, have a broad range of activities, and operate in complex environments. They are often exposed to moisture, microorganisms, ultraviolet rays, and other acidic or alkaline gases and liquids, and sometimes suffer from wear or scratches that cause damage. Applying paint to their surfaces can protect cars from damage and extend their service life.

What should be noted after driving through waterlogged sections?

It is advisable to pass through at low speed with high engine RPM in low gear to avoid water entering the engine. The following are relevant details: 1. Precautions: When the water level is below half of the tire height, the driver should first observe whether other vehicles passing through the waterlogged area are moving smoothly to determine if there are deep potholes or obstacles on the road. If the water level exceeds half of the tire height, forcing the vehicle through is not recommended, as the car's exhaust pipe is typically at this height. Forcing passage may easily cause water to enter the exhaust pipe, leading to severe damage to the engine. 2. Waterlogging insurance: Waterlogging insurance, also known as vehicle loss insurance or engine special loss insurance, varies in name among different insurance companies but is essentially the same. It is a newly derived type of insurance, referring to an additional insurance purchased by the car owner specifically for the engine.

Why Does Car Glass Fog Up in Summer?

Here is the relevant explanation: 1. Window fogging: In summer, car window fogging is different from winter fogging. Summer fog mostly occurs on the outside of the windows and usually appears in clusters, meaning the fog forms in patches rather than covering the entire window surface. This is the biggest difference between summer and winter fogging. 2. Car fogging: In summer, car fogging occurs because the air conditioning temperature inside the car is set too low, creating a large temperature difference. Additionally, the direction of the air conditioning airflow is not properly adjusted, such as when the airflow is directed at the front windshield or the side windows. When this cold air blows out, it significantly lowers the temperature of the glass area. When this cold glass comes into contact with the warmer outside air, combined with high humidity, it easily forms a layer of water vapor on the outside.

What Causes the Squeaking Noise in Shock Absorbers?

Possible causes: The shock absorber itself is leaking oil or bent; The shock absorber pressure bearing is aged or worn. Here are the relevant details: 1. Automobile Shock Absorber: To rapidly attenuate the vibration between the frame and the body, and to improve the smoothness and comfort of the vehicle, shock absorbers are generally installed in the automobile suspension system. The most widely used type in automobiles is the double-acting cylinder shock absorber. 2. Function: Automobile shock absorbers are an important part of the vehicle's suspension system. Their role is to suppress the impact of spring rebound, absorb vibrations and deformations, and mitigate road shocks. They directly affect the ride comfort and handling of the vehicle, as well as driving safety.

Should minor scratches on a new car be repainted?

Minor scratches on a new car do not need to be repainted. Here are specific solutions for dealing with minor scratches on a new car: 1. Toothpaste: When the car has minor scratches, using toothpaste for repair is very effective because toothpaste itself has a grinding function, equivalent to applying a layer of wax to your beloved car, thus achieving a good repair effect. 2. Touch-up pen: Using a touch-up pen can cover some smaller and lighter scratches, making the marks less noticeable. Although there is still a certain gap compared to the original factory paint (color difference exists), and the durability is far inferior to the original factory paint, after all, the touch-up pen is only for local touch-ups, and the overall effect looks very good.

What is the Difference Between Intelligent Four-Wheel Drive and Full-Time Four-Wheel Drive?

Intelligent four-wheel drive and full-time four-wheel drive differ in the following aspects: 1. Different structures: Compared to full-time four-wheel drive, intelligent four-wheel drive has a much simpler structure. Due to its unique design, it is more suitable for vehicles with front transverse engine front-wheel drive platforms, enabling many SUVs or four-wheel drive cars based on this platform to be equipped with a four-wheel drive system. 2. Different power transmission: Currently, most intelligent four-wheel drive systems are limited by structural defects when transmitting power between the front and rear axles, unable to deliver more than 50% of the power to the rear axle. This results in a smaller adjustment range for active safety control compared to full-time four-wheel drive. 3. Different off-road capabilities: Intelligent four-wheel drive uses a lower-grade bonded center differential, which serves only two purposes: first, its simpler structure reduces costs, and second, it helps save fuel. Vehicles equipped with intelligent four-wheel drive have fuel consumption rates similar to those of regular two-wheel drive vehicles.
