How to deal with dents and scratches on a new car door?

If the paint on the dented area of the car door is not peeling or chipped, and the dent is not very deep, it can be repaired with professional tools to restore it to its original condition as much as possible, without the need for sheet metal work or repainting. Here is some additional information: 1. If the dent is already present: If the dent is already there, it can only be repaired through sheet metal and repainting. The cost will vary depending on the size and location of the dent. Additionally, 4S shops are definitely much more expensive than roadside auto repair shops. If you know a car beauty shop, it is recommended to go there for repairs. 2. Sheet metal and repainting: Sheet metal and repainting is a car repair technique that involves repairing the deformed parts of the car's metal shell. For example, if the car body shell is dented, sheet metal work can restore it to its original shape, and then specialized paint is sprayed to make the deformed metal surface of the car look as good as new, just like the undamaged parts.

Can the Headlight Vent Be Blocked?

No, it cannot be blocked. The headlight vent is a properly designed component that maintains the air pressure balance inside and outside the headlight, preventing damage caused by excessive internal pressure. It also helps extend the headlight's lifespan. The function of the headlight vent: In terms of the overall structure of the headlight, whether it's a standard halogen headlight, a xenon headlight, or an LED headlight, there is a venting rubber tube located at the rear cover. When the headlight is turned on or during use, it generates a significant amount of heat. The vent tube helps dissipate this heat as much as possible to maintain the headlight's normal operating temperature and ensure stable performance. Disadvantages of the vent: Moisture in the air can enter the headlight through the vent and condense on the lens. As moisture accumulates, water droplets may form and flow down the lens.

What cleaning agent should be used for DIY car washing?

Car washing should use specialized automotive cleaning agents. There are brands like Turtle Wax and Red Power available on the market. When purchasing, ensure the cleaning agent is pH-neutral. Neutral cleaning agents protect the car paint from damage during washing, are gentle on the skin, and often contain wax components that help preserve the paint surface. Remember, never use laundry detergent as a substitute for car cleaning agents, as laundry detergents are alkaline and can corrode the car paint. More details are as follows: Do not randomly clean the engine compartment: Because the engine compartment is filled with components like circuit boards, carelessness can easily damage high-voltage packs and circuit boards. Therefore, be extra cautious when washing the car yourself, especially avoiding the use of high-pressure water jets. Cleaning frequency: There's no need to wash the car too frequently; once a week is recommended. For general dust, gently sweeping with a feather duster or a soft-bristled broom is sufficient. However, if the car encounters heavy rain, mud, or severe dust, it should be cleaned promptly.

Is it okay not to install windshield film?

Not installing film has little impact on vehicle usage and driving. However, if conditions permit, it is recommended to install film. There are many benefits to applying film: after installation on the front windshield, it can reduce the aging time of car interior components caused by harmful sunlight rays and also minimize the damage of harmful rays to the human body. Impact of film installation on vehicle registration: Whether a new car with installed film can be registered mainly depends on whether the installed solar film meets the specified standards. Currently, the vehicle management department primarily refers to the GB7258-2004 "Safety Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicles Operating on Roads" enacted and implemented in 2004. Vehicle management office requirements for film installation: The driver's compartment must ensure the driver's forward and side vision. The visible light transmittance of the front windshield and the glass areas outside the windshield used for the driver's viewing area must not be less than 70%. Mirror-reflective sunshade films are not allowed on any window glass.
