1 Answers
Bodywork and painting with poor technique and improper maintenance may develop issues within 1-2 years; with good technique and proper maintenance, it can last around 5-6 years. Inspection After Bodywork and Painting: Check the paint: After bodywork and painting repairs, inspect the smoothness of the paint and check for impurities such as pinholes or bubbles. During the repair process of body panel coatings, it is inevitable for some impurities and dust to be present in the air. If not handled properly, this dust can adhere to the paint. Check for color difference: After car painting, it is difficult to detect color differences between the new paint and the original paint. Even with better craftsmanship, it is challenging to achieve a perfect match with the original paint. When checking for color differences, perform the inspection in a bright environment to ensure a comprehensive evaluation. Check the gloss of the clear coat: The clear coat is the outermost transparent layer of the car paint. If the gloss of the clear coat is poor, it will affect the visual appearance. Before performing bodywork and painting, ensure the cleanliness of the bodywork's filtration system and check if the spraying pressure is normal. If these aspects are satisfactory, proceed to inspect the paint booth's water and micro-dust separator and the air compressor. This step requires the paint hoses to remain clean. Bodywork and painting have high requirements. Items such as paint hoses, paint mixing cans, and spray guns used during the process should be stored in clean areas. Besides maintaining cleanliness, all preparatory steps should be completed outside the paint booth before starting the painting process to avoid unnecessary contamination of the paint.
