Here are the methods to smooth out after applying a touch-up paint pen: 1. Sand with wet sandpaper. You can use 2000-grit wet sandpaper for sanding. After the touch-up paint has dried, soak the wet sandpaper in soapy water for 20-30 minutes to make it softer, then sand the uneven paint surface until the thickness of the touch-up paint matches the original factory paint. 2. Smooth with toothpaste. Toothpaste can act as a mild abrasive to some extent. First, squeeze toothpaste onto a soft, clean towel or sponge, then gently rub the uneven areas until the touch-up paint thickness evens out with the original factory paint. 3. For better results, you can also use polishing compound for sanding.

Does the Volkswagen CC leak water?

FAW-Volkswagen CC's frameless doors will not leak water as long as the door seal strips are not aged and the doors have not been involved in accidents. Sunroof water leakage: There are generally two situations for sunroof water leakage: one is clogging of the sunroof drainage channel; the other is displacement or "lifting" of the sunroof sealing strip. Therefore, it is advisable to regularly clean the sunroof to maintain the cleanliness around the drainage channel. Also, do not forget to use high-pressure air jet equipment aimed at the drainage pipe during regular car washes to blow away any dirt inside the pipe. Car waterproof adhesive failure causing water leakage: Water leakage usually occurs at the openings of doors and the trunk. The main reason for this is often the waterproof strips, which may be defective, aged, or cracked, allowing rainwater to seep in. Reapplying adhesive specifically designed for waterproof strips can completely prevent water leakage.
