Methods to remove yellow stains from white car paint are: 1. After cleaning the car surface thoroughly, dry it with a towel, then evenly spray iron remover on the car body; 2. After 3 to 5 minutes, the iron remover will chemically react with the yellow rust spots on the paint surface, turning them purple; 3. Wipe the car body clean with a sponge. The functions of car paint are: 1. To protect the car from erosion by various corrosive agents in the atmosphere; 2. To decorate the car; 3. To indicate the type of car; 4. To improve the comfort and sealing of the car, preventing noise caused by vibration. Methods to maintain car paint include: 1. Wash the car only after the engine has cooled down; 2. Reduce exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Clean stains on the car body promptly; 4. Rinse with clean water after rain to prevent acid rain corrosion; 5. Apply wax or glaze coating.

I've thought about the issue of white car paint turning yellow many times. After driving a white car for a few years, the hood and roof are particularly prone to yellowing, which is really annoying. Actually, it's mainly due to paint oxidation, with sunlight and air pollution being the primary culprits. To deal with this, I recommend first washing the car thoroughly with regular car shampoo to remove surface dust, then gently rubbing the yellowed areas with a clay bar. If that's not effective enough, use a specialized cleaner wax or polishing compound. Never use strong acid or alkaline cleaners, as they might scratch the paint. After polishing, promptly apply wax or a ceramic coating for protection, and try to park in the shade to avoid prolonged sun exposure. Remember not to be too aggressive at once—gradual, layered treatment is safer. Regular maintenance can keep your beloved car looking bright white like new.

How to Solve White Smoke from a Gasoline Engine?

White smoke hitting the back of your hand with water droplets indicates that water has entered the cylinder. The single-cylinder fuel cut-off method can be used to identify the leaking cylinder. When white smoke appears from a gasoline engine, you can increase the engine's operating temperature. If the issue persists, it can be determined that the fuel injector has poor atomization or is dripping fuel.

How to Deal with Abnormal Car Voltage?

Listen carefully for a "hissing" sound from the engine. If present, it indicates the vehicle battery is dead, and you should charge the car battery promptly. Test both the car battery and alternator to see if they are functioning properly. If either the car battery or alternator is found to be damaged, replace them immediately. If the car displays a low battery voltage but can start normally, the issue is minor, and the owner can disregard it.

How to Deal with Rust and Corrosion on Car Metal Panels?

If the rust appears on the surface and the area is small, you can use water sandpaper to grind off the rust and then spray a layer of rust-proof paint. If the rust area is small, scrape off the rust, sand it clean with sandpaper, and then perform touch-up painting. If the door is severely rusted, it is necessary to completely remove the rusted paint from the door, fill and level it with putty, and then spray paint after the putty has hardened.
