How many days should the red cloth strip be hung on a new car?

[DelGarrett]

There is no strict rule for how long the red cloth strip should be hung on a new car—it mainly depends on personal preference. In the past, the red cloth strip was usually brought by the car owner when picking up the vehicle, but nowadays, many 4S stores also prepare it in advance for the delivery ceremony. In China, red symbolizes joy, auspiciousness, and the ability to ward off evil spirits. Tying a red ribbon to a new car represents safe travels and smooth journeys. However, it's worth reminding new car owners that keeping the red cloth strip on for too long isn't beneficial, as most red cloth strips tend to fade, especially during rainy weather. If the faded color sticks to the car paint and isn't cleaned promptly, it may become difficult to remove over time.
