What to do if the paint of Geely Vision X3 peels off?

You can purchase a touch-up pen that matches your car's color at an auto repair shop or online, and follow the instructions to repair the peeling area. If the peeling area is large and you don't have time to repair it, you can use a spray paint of the corresponding color to treat it. Just spray evenly when applying. For areas with minor peeling or slight scratches that are not obvious, you can apply toothpaste to treat them, which can also provide temporary rust-proof isolation. If the peeling is deep, you can go to an auto beauty shop for wax polishing or professional spray painting.
As a veteran who has run an auto repair shop for eight years, the severity of paint peeling on the Geely Vision X3 determines the solution. For coin-sized chips caused by small stones, you can DIY with a specialized touch-up pen costing just tens of yuan—first lightly sand the rusted edges with fine sandpaper, apply primer and let it dry before adding color paint, then spray blending clear coat to smooth the edges (avoid rainy days). If entire door sills show bubbling, it likely indicates internal rust pushing through, requiring complete rust removal, panel beating, and repainting. Insist technicians use factory color code 'Titanium Gray'—the most challenging match—as slight deviations stand out. Preventive measures: avoid frequent bush scrapes when parking and skip corrosive car wash detergents to minimize peeling risks.
As a veteran car enthusiast with ten years of experience, I've personally repaired door paint chips three times. The thin paint on the Geely Vision X3 is a common issue—never pick at sesame seed-sized chips! Prepare three essential tools: a rust remover pen, touch-up paint kit, and painter's tape. Use a toothpick to dab rust remover on exposed metal, let it dry, then position with painter's tape. Apply paint in thin layers with 15-minute intervals between coats. A pro tip for color matching: soak the touch-up bottle in hot water for three minutes before application for better adhesion. For paint chips on rearview mirror corners, it's better to replace the cover—original parts on Taobao cost just over 100 yuan, more cost-effective than repainting.
