There are differences between car waxing and glazing in terms of nature, method, etc. The specific details are as follows: Different Nature: Car glazing involves a multi-step process that forms a protective film on the car's paint surface, similar to the outer coating of ceramic products. Waxing creates a thin film through the application of wax, which serves to protect the exterior paint. Different Methods: Glazing uses a soft wool or sponge with a high-speed vibration and friction machine to forcefully penetrate glaze molecules into the car's surface and paint gaps, utilizing the glaze's unique permeability and adhesion. Waxing can be done manually or mechanically. It ensures the paint surface is evenly coated, followed by wiping and polishing. Different Effects: After car glazing, it can enhance glossiness and hardness. Waxing has waterproofing, anti-acid rain, and polishing effects, reducing the amount of water droplets adhering to the car body. Car wax can also prevent static electricity and dust.

How is the start date of the driver's license demerit point cycle calculated?

Demerit point cycles are calculated from the date the driver's license was obtained. For example, if the license was obtained on November 4th, then November 4th of the following year marks the end of one demerit point cycle. Below are relevant details about the demerit point cycle: 1. Demerit point rules: If the accumulated demerit points within a cycle do not reach 12, and all fines are paid before the cycle ends, the system will automatically reset the points to zero at the start of the next cycle. Any unpaid fines will carry over the demerit points to the next cycle, where they will accumulate further. If the total exceeds 12 points, the driver will need to undergo training to clear the points. 2. Importance of the demerit point cycle: If all points are deducted within a cycle, the driver must retake training courses. Since demerit points result from traffic violations, it is crucial to obey traffic rules not only to protect one's license points but also to ensure personal safety.

Why are Sinopec gas stations cheaper?

Sinopec gas stations are cheaper because they entered the market late and have relatively low brand recognition, requiring them to reduce profit margins to gain market share. Additional information: Methods to distinguish gasoline quality are as follows: 1. Gasoline color: When refueling your car, pay attention to the color of the gasoline. Normally, gasoline should be water-white in color. If the color darkens, it may indicate that the gasoline has been stored for too long and has undergone chemical reactions. 2. Usage: Check if fuel consumption has increased. Inspect the exhaust pipe for sticky substances—if present, it suggests the gasoline is of poor quality. Also, observe if there are knocking issues during use or difficulties in ignition. 3. Smell: Gently waft the gasoline's odor. If there is a pungent or unusual smell, such as a smoky or sulfurous odor, it means the gasoline contains excessive sulfur or other impurities. 4. Touch: Dip your finger in the gasoline and rub it a few times. If the gasoline feels excessively greasy, similar to engine oil, it indicates poor quality. Alternatively, pour a small amount on your hand—if it evaporates quickly, the gasoline is of good quality.

Why Do Some Small Cars Have Black License Plates?

Black license plates are used for diplomatic vehicles, and some foreign-funded enterprises also have them. The conditions for obtaining a black license plate are as follows: Foreign, Hong Kong, Macau, or Taiwan merchants who invest a certain amount in establishing businesses in the mountainous areas of Guangdong Province, or a specified amount in non-mountainous areas, may be permitted to register one Hong Kong private car for entry and exit to mainland China during the contract period. Those investing a specified amount in Guangdong Province may be permitted to register one Macau private car for entry and exit to mainland China during the contract period. Foreign, Hong Kong, Macau, or Taiwan merchants investing in Guangdong Province through intellectual property or high-tech methods may apply under the standards of the first and second clauses. Foreign, Hong Kong, Macau, or Taiwan merchants investing in China through investment companies, which in turn invest in Guangdong Province, may also apply under the first and second clauses. Foreign financial institutions (excluding representative offices) established in Guangdong Province with investments reaching the specified amount may be permitted to register one Macau private car for entry and exit to mainland China. The procedure for obtaining a black license plate is as follows: The reception desk verifies the agent's authorization and the identification of both the principal and the agent, checks the submitted documents, and if compliant, enters the company name and Hong Kong/Macau vehicle license plate number into the computer, establishes preliminary file information, and issues an "Acceptance Receipt" to the agent. For applications from the Guangdong International Relations Research Office, public security organs, or state security organs for private cars entering and exiting mainland China, the documents are submitted to the bureau leadership for approval after receipt. Non-compliant applications are rejected. If documents are suspected of forgery or alteration, the names are added to a blacklist database after leadership approval. Based on the application content, the reception desk enters the Hong Kong/Macau vehicle and driver information into the computer and forwards it to the review desk. The review desk verifies the documents and computer records, and if compliant, forwards them to the business leadership desk. The business leadership desk reviews the documents in accordance with the monthly quota for private cars entering and exiting mainland China, checks the computer records, and if compliant, forwards them to the license management desk for certificate issuance. Non-compliant applications are rejected. If documents are suspected of forgery or alteration, the names are added to a blacklist database after leadership approval.

What is the new regulation for 6-year to 10-year exemption from annual inspection for family cars?

For family cars, the new regulation for 6-year to 10-year exemption from annual inspection is: Starting from November 20, 2020, non-operational vehicles (excluding minivans) that are 6 to 10 years old will change from an annual inspection to a biennial inspection. Below is relevant information about vehicle annual inspections: 1. Introduction: Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for every vehicle that has obtained an official license plate and registration certificate. It is equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." Vehicle annual inspections can promptly eliminate potential safety hazards, encourage enhanced vehicle maintenance, and reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Regulations regarding vehicle annual inspections are stipulated in documents such as the "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law." Before the annual inspection, some preparatory work is needed (such as knowing relevant information, making online appointments, understanding the process, and being aware of vehicle-related issues) to ensure a smooth and successful inspection. There are initial and regular annual inspections, as well as some related policies. 2. Timing: Vehicles can apply for an annual inspection within three months before the inspection date. It is best to apply two months or more than one month in advance. Additionally, before the 10th of each month, inspection stations have relatively fewer appointments, making it an ideal time to avoid queues. The number of vehicles increases from the middle of the month, and the end of the month is the peak period.
