Is it a problem if the paint on the bottom edge of the car door is scratched off?

If the area is not large, you can go to a repair shop to touch up the paint. If the area is large, a repainting is needed. The following is an introduction: 1. Car painting: Car painting refers to applying a layer of paint to the car surface to protect the car. Car painting generally uses baking paint. In automobile manufacturing plants, after the frame and body are welded, the next process is painting. Types include ordinary paint, metallic paint, and pearl paint. Car painting processes include applying putty, sanding, and painting. 2. Classification: There are three types of car paint surfaces: ordinary paint, metallic paint, and pearl paint. 3. Composition: The composition of car paint. Car paint generally has four basic components: film-forming substances (resins), pigments (including extender pigments), solvents, and additives.
I think the issue of paint scratches on the lower edges of car doors really needs attention. Last week, my car fell victim to this. It's a particularly tricky spot—easy to overlook but poses significant risks. Because it's close to the ground, driving through puddles on rainy days can lead to water accumulation and moisture exposure. Once the metal is exposed, it quickly starts to oxidize and rust. I once neglected to address it promptly, and within six months, rust spots had spread to the door seams. Preventing rust is actually quite simple: spend a few dollars on a touch-up pen in the same color, clean the scratch thoroughly, and apply it two or three times. If the scratch is deep enough to expose the metal, it's advisable to first visit a car wash for a localized rust prevention treatment, which costs just a few dozen dollars, before touching up the paint. Never try to cover it up hastily with transparent tape—the adhesive residue is even harder to deal with.
