Methods to remove asphalt sprayed on a car body are: 1. Use a mixture of soap, ammonia water, and turpentine to wipe off the residue; 2. Repeatedly stick and peel with transparent tape; 3. Wipe off with sodium hydroxide or paint thinner; 4. Blow dry with a hair dryer and then scrape off; 5. Use a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover or essential balm to wipe. Methods for car paint maintenance include: 1. Wash the car regularly; 2. Waxing helps prevent oxidation, isolate static electricity, and improve the brightness of the car paint surface, isolating the paint from dust and harmful gases; 3. Crystal coating involves applying a high-molecular film with hardness and smoothness to the car surface, which solidifies and protects the paint; 4. Glazing penetrates the car paint to form a protective mesh film, enhancing the paint's strength.
When I first bought my car, I also encountered the problem of asphalt sticking to the body. After a few attempts, I learned a simple method. First, rinse off large dust particles on the car body with clean water to avoid secondary scratches. Then, spray a dedicated tar cleaner (available at auto parts stores or online) onto the asphalt spots and let it soak for five to ten minutes to dissolve the stains. Avoid using hard objects to scrape, as this can easily damage the paint. Once the time is up, gently wipe with a soft cloth or sponge. If there are still residues, repeat the process. Finally, thoroughly rinse with car wash foam and dry the car surface. To protect the paint, it's recommended to apply a wax coating afterward to prevent oxidation. The whole process takes no more than half an hour, with the key being patience and not rushing. DIY saves money and gives peace of mind, but remember to test the cleaner on a small area or the bottom of the door before full application.
