Methods for dealing with scratches on car rearview mirrors are as follows: 1. Use toothpaste to rub the mirror: The abrasive components in toothpaste can sometimes remove scratches. Use traditional toothpaste instead of gel toothpaste. 2. Apply jewelry polish (cerium oxide): This ingredient can effectively restore the mirror's shine. Mix it with water and apply it to the mirror. 3. Use nail polish to cover the scratches: Apply a layer of nail polish, wipe off the excess, and check if the scratches are less noticeable. If the scratches are still visible, repeat the process. 4. Use mustard/vinegar paste: Mix dry mustard with white vinegar and apply it to the rearview mirror, then scrub.

Can polishing paste be used to polish glass?

Polishing paste can be used to polish glass. However, toothpaste should not be used to polish vehicle glass, as toothpaste contains many abrasives. If too much force is applied, it can leave a frosted surface on the car window glass. It is recommended to go to a beauty salon or glass shop and use a polishing machine for polishing. Introduction to car polishing: Car polishing involves using a polishing machine with a polishing pad and polishing compound to grind the car paint at a uniform speed. It primarily relies on the cutting force of the polishing pad and the fine particles in the polishing compound to heat and soften the paint, squeezing and filling the paint around scratches into the scratches themselves. This results in a smooth and glossy car paint surface, making the scratches invisible. Precautions for car polishing: If your car needs polishing, it is advisable to go to a professional car beauty institution. Achieving the desired effect without a polishing machine is difficult, and improper operation may cause damage to the car's paint surface.

What is the function of a car steering system?

The function of a car steering system is to change or maintain the direction of the vehicle. Below is a related introduction to the advantages and functions of a car steering system: 1. Advantages of the steering system: The car power steering system enhances steering sensitivity. Starting from the two main design requirements of a car steering system—steering ease and steering sensitivity—the power steering system resolves the issue of steering ease, allowing the steering gear design to select a more appropriate gear ratio based on different vehicle layout requirements to improve the sensitivity of the steering system and more reasonably choose the number of steering wheel turns. 2. Function of the steering system: The function of a car steering system is to control the direction of the vehicle according to the driver's intention. The car steering system is crucial to the driving safety of the vehicle, hence all components of the car steering system are referred to as safety-critical parts. Both the car steering system and the braking system are two systems that must be given priority for vehicle safety.
