What kind of car wash detergent should be used for a new car?
1 Answers
It is best to use a specialized car wash detergent for new cars. Dedicated car wash liquids are neutral cleaners that are gentle on both hands and paint, primarily composed of natural plant-derived surfactants. Precautions for car washing: After high-speed driving or prolonged exposure to intense sunlight, the surface temperature of the car paint becomes very high. If cold water is used to rinse at this time, the paint surface may be damaged, and in severe cases, it could lead to cracking. Frequency of car washing: There is no need to wash the car too frequently. Generally, washing the car once every 7-10 days is sufficient, as frequent washing can accelerate paint oxidation. However, this is not absolute. If the car body is contaminated with mud, rainwater, bird droppings, etc., the owner should clean the vehicle as soon as possible to prevent corrosion of the paint.
