Domestic vehicles are not allowed to have roll cages for the following reasons: 1. Increased costs: Since roll cages are not made of ordinary steel but rather from cold-drawn seamless carbon steel pipes, installing them in household vehicles would significantly raise manufacturing costs. 2. Occupies space: Installing a roll cage in a household vehicle naturally reduces interior space considerably. To accommodate the roll cage, the rear seats would need to be removed. 3. Affects comfort: With a roll cage installed, many interior configurations would be removed, greatly diminishing the vehicle's comfort. 4. Illegal modifications: Ordinary vehicles are not permitted to undergo self-modifications, and installing a roll cage is considered illegal. Adding a roll cage inevitably involves altering the original vehicle structure, introducing more safety risks with unauthorized modifications.

What to do if the scratch cannot be wiped off but the primer is not damaged?

Touch with your finger. Generally, if you cannot feel obvious unevenness when touching the scratch, it means the primer is not damaged. Take out a clean towel, wet it, and quickly wipe off the black marks with force. Note that the towel should not be too wet, as this may damage the primer. Use a polishing wheel with polishing oxidizer to remove the oxidized layer attached to the car surface, smooth out fine scratches, and allow the chemical to penetrate the paint for a restorative effect.

What is the best spraying method for automotive 2K paint?

First, use a blower (spray gun) to thoroughly dry any water in the car's seams, and cover areas that do not require painting with newspaper. Then, begin mixing the paint. Perform sanding, and apply the sealer primer in the correct proportion by brushing. Do not skip applying the sealer primer based on non-professional advice. Ensure even gun movement. Start by applying two thin coats of paint over the putty and let them dry briefly. Then, spray two more coats evenly from the bottom using a 3/1 gun movement technique and allow to dry.

What Causes the Buzzing Sound in the Car While Driving?

Driving with a buzzing sound in the car can be caused by the following reasons: 1. Excessive tire pressure. When the tire pressure is too high, the contact area between the tires and the ground decreases, which can easily cause a buzzing noise. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the tire pressure properly while driving, especially since excessively high tire pressure can also lead to the risk of a tire blowout, compromising driving safety. 2. Abnormal tire wear. When tires experience abnormal wear, it is easy to produce a buzzing sound due to uneven tire surfaces and varying contact areas with the ground. 3. Damaged wheel hub bearings. Due to prolonged use, wheel hub bearings may wear out, and excessive wear can also result in abnormal noises.

Should You Use Internal or External Air Circulation When Driving on the Highway?

You should use external air circulation when driving on the highway. Here are some considerations for using internal and external air circulation on the highway: 1. During long drives on the highway, it is advisable to slightly open the windows or turn on the external air circulation to maintain fresh air inside the vehicle and prevent dizziness caused by lack of oxygen. Do not close the windows or turn off the external air circulation when sleeping in the car. 2. The choice between internal and external air circulation on the highway depends on the season and weather conditions. When the weather is comfortably cool, you can use external air circulation; when it is hot, avoid using external air circulation. 3. On rainy days, turn on the internal air circulation and also activate the defogging function to prevent fog from obstructing your vision.
