Where to Wash the Car Chassis?
2 Answers
Car chassis cleaning should be done at a car wash shop. The steps for cleaning a car chassis are as follows: 1. Lift the car with a lift, wrap the exhaust pipe, wire connectors, etc., and rinse the chassis with a high-pressure water gun. 2. Use a specialized cleaning agent to rinse the chassis again, then dry the chassis with a high-pressure air gun. 3. Finally, unwrap the wrapped parts and lower the car. The introduction to the car chassis is as follows: 1. The car chassis consists of four parts: the transmission system, the running system, the steering system, and the braking system. 2. The function of the chassis is to support and install the car engine and its various components and assemblies, form the overall shape of the car, receive the power of the engine, make the car move, and ensure normal driving.
I used to drive long-distance freight for several years and have extensive experience in chassis cleaning. The common practice at car washes of casually spraying the chassis with high-pressure water guns is actually dangerous. Water getting into the brake discs can cause rust, and washing away the grease from the driveshaft universal joints can do more harm than good. I recommend going to a professional auto repair shop with a lift. They remove the underbody panels to thoroughly rinse off mud and sand, use an air gun to dry hard-to-reach areas of the chassis, and finally apply anti-rust oil to key components. Especially in northern winters after snowfall, the corrosion from road salt on the chassis is particularly severe. This kind of deep cleaning should be done every three months. Don’t hesitate to spend that hundred or so bucks—the savings on repair costs will cover ten years of chassis cleaning.
