What to Do If Car Paint Is Not Smooth?
2 Answers
Car paint not smooth treatment methods are: 1. Use clean water or car wash liquid to clean the stains on the car body once; 2. Apply pre-soaked car clay on the surface, then gently wipe the car paint with a car towel until the surface becomes smooth again. The reasons for the car paint feeling rough are paint aging, corrosion, and paint damage. Car paint maintenance methods include: 1. Wash the car after the engine has cooled down; 2. Reduce exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Clean stains on the car body promptly; 4. Rinse with clean water after rain to avoid acid rain corrosion; 5. Apply wax or glaze.
After driving for many years, I've found there are quite a few reasons why car paint may lose its smoothness. It could be due to dust settling during the painting process, or water coming into contact before the paint fully dried. The most common cause is failing to promptly clean off bird droppings or tree sap, which can corrode the paint surface. In such cases, first try using a clay bar to clean. If the surface still feels rough, I recommend getting a professional polishing at a shop - the results are immediate. DIY attempts can easily damage the paint; I once tried using abrasive compounds and nearly caused scratches. Regular maintenance shouldn't be neglected - wash weekly, wax quarterly, and especially avoid prolonged sun exposure. If parking near construction sites, remember to use a car cover. Well-maintained paint not only looks good but also gives you pride when driving.
