The functions of the side mirror waterproof film: Waterproofing is the most important function of this side mirror film. In addition, it also has effects such as oil resistance, anti-fogging, scratch resistance, and anti-glare from high beams. The principle of the side mirror waterproof film: The side mirror water repellent (not called rainproof film), also known as glass rainproof film, has a very simple principle. It forms a layer of film on the glass surface, allowing rainwater to slide off quickly.

What Are the Yellow Spots on a White Car?

Yellow spots on white car paint are formed by the oxidation of dust particles containing various chemical components in the air that adhere to the car's surface. If not cleaned, they can damage the paint and affect the appearance of your beloved car. Here are some relevant details: 1. Hazards: Yellow spots on car paint are commonly seen on white and silver cars. These spots are usually caused by iron particles floating onto the paint surface, which rust and form yellow spots after exposure to rainwater. They are difficult to remove with regular car washing and, over time, can corrode the inner layers of the paint, leading to peeling. 2. Solutions: If you are particularly concerned about your car's paint, you can apply a layer of paint protection film (PPF). PPF is essentially a transparent film applied to the car's surface to protect the paint.
