What to Do If the VIN is Too Faint?

[TravisFitz]

If the VIN is too faint, it needs to be refurbished. Due to the importance of the VIN for the vehicle, it is generally recommended not to handle it yourself. Additionally, before going to a professional workshop for refurbishment, you need to report and apply to the vehicle management office for permission to refurbish the VIN. Below are some relevant details: 1. Surface Rust: If the VIN only has surface rust, you can first use a specialized rust remover (such as WD-40 Rust Remover). If the rust is deeper, you can spray the rust remover, gently sand it with 0-grade sandpaper, or use a steel brush to clean it. 2. Severe Corrosion: If the VIN is severely corroded and the inside is already damaged, applying rust remover may still not make it visible. In this case, you must report to the vehicle management office and apply for refurbishment. If the VIN has become blurred over time, it is recommended to go to a professional repair shop for refurbishment.
