Methods to deal with scratched-off car paint: 1. A touch-up pen can handle minor scratches. If the rust is not severe, you can first use very fine sandpaper dipped in water to gently remove the rust spots, sanding in straight lines in the same direction. After completely cleaning it, apply a layer of primer; 2. Applying toothpaste can temporarily prevent rust. Simply gently apply toothpaste in a circular motion over the scratched area. The main components of car paint are resins, which have relatively large molecular gaps. After coating, small molecular elements such as silicon, silicon dioxide, and nano-inorganic silicon in the coating solution can fully penetrate into the gaps and micropores of the car paint molecules, forming a transparent crystalline coating layer on its surface, similar to a phone screen protector.

How to Replace Car Keys When All Are Lost?

Every vehicle comes with an anti-theft code configured by the manufacturer. The car owner only needs to provide the vehicle license and identification information to the 4S dealership, which can then retrieve the vehicle's anti-theft code based on the provided information to configure a new key. Below is a classification of car key chip types: 1. Fixed Code: The code remains unchanged, consisting of numbers and letters (the data does not change when starting the engine). 2. Rolling Code: Each button press generates a different electronic code, but the code only changes when you use the key to start the vehicle engine. For example: Even if the chip's encoding is completely copied, it is difficult to crack through duplicating the chip's memory because the chip password changes dynamically each time the engine is started. 3. Two-Way Dynamic Password: The latest chip and chip controller (two-way data encryption) use encrypted codes. They are equipped with internal program algorithms to decrypt each piece of encrypted information.
