Is Using Toothpaste to Clean Car Windows Harmful to the Car?
1 Answers
Using toothpaste to clean car windows is harmful to the car. Toothpaste is typically composed of many substances with abrasive properties, such as calcium hydrogen phosphate, calcium carbonate, silicon dioxide, calcium pyrophosphate, aluminum hydroxide, etc. The characteristics of these substances determine that toothpaste has a friction function. If toothpaste is used to clean glass, under light, you can see numerous fine scratches. Toothpaste can be used to treat some minor scratches on the car body. The principle is that the particles in the toothpaste fill in the scratches. The specific method is as follows: first, clean the scratch with water, then take a clean cloth, apply a small amount of toothpaste to the scratch and gently rub it. Once the scratch disappears or weakens, wipe it dry with a wet cloth.
