Is it okay to wash the car by fetching water with a bucket?
1 Answers
Car owners can wash their cars by fetching water with a bucket, as long as the washing method is correct and scientific, it will not damage the car paint. After prolonged use, cars inevitably accumulate dust and dirt. When washing the car, this dirt will mix into the water. Continuing to use the same dirty water to wash the car is equivalent to rubbing the car body with sand and gravel, which can cause wear and tear on the car paint. Therefore, if you choose to wash the car yourself, it is best to change the water frequently to achieve better washing results. Here are some precautions for washing the car yourself: 1. Do not use plastic brushes to wash the car: This can scratch the car paint and window glass. It is best to choose soft brushes or use sponges or cotton cloths for washing. 2. Do not use laundry detergent or dish soap to wash the car: These are either too acidic or too alkaline, which can cause oxidation of the car paint. Over time, the car body will become dull and the paint may even peel off. It is recommended to purchase specialized car cleaning solutions from car beauty shops, as these are mostly neutral and less harmful to the car paint. 3. Do not wash the car with plain water only: Plain water can only remove surface dirt and cannot achieve deep cleaning. Moreover, most plain water today is slightly acidic and contains calcium, magnesium ions, and other substances, which can damage the car during washing. Therefore, it is best to use car cleaning solutions for washing. 4. Do not wash the car under direct sunlight: If water droplets are not wiped off the car paint after washing, direct sunlight can create localized high temperatures, leading to aging of the car paint.
