New car's window makes noise when rolling up and down on rainy days because there is a lot of dust accumulated in the window rubber guide channel or the rubber has aged. Accumulation of dust: Generally speaking, if there is noise when the window is rolling up and down, it is because a lot of dust has accumulated in the window rubber guide channel. Therefore, the resistance will increase during the rolling process. Moreover, if there are some particles mixed in the dust, it will make noise. In this case, you only need to wet a cloth with water and wrap it around one end of a chopstick, then fix it with a rubber band. Then insert this end into the glass guide channel and slide it back and forth to clean. Aging of rubber: In addition to dust accumulation, aging of the window rubber can also cause the window to roll up and down unsmoothly, and lubricant is needed to deal with it. Spray it on the rubber. On the one hand, it can lubricate, and on the other hand, it can maintain the toughness of the rubber and reduce the occurrence of cracking. While solving the aging problem, it also plays a certain preventive role.

Does Car Audio Quality Depend on Speakers or the Head Unit?

Car audio quality depends more on the speakers. Summary: To convert perfect electrical signals into sound, you have to rely entirely on the speakers. The speakers play an absolutely critical role in the audio system. Even if the head unit's parameters are excellent, it's all in vain if the speakers can't accurately reproduce the sound. Therefore, to achieve good audio quality in a car, you need high-quality speakers. Additional Notes: The main factors affecting car audio quality are noise-related. First, soundproof the doors, then upgrade the speakers to a high-end speaker set. These premium speakers require significant power, which the factory-installed amplifier can't handle, so a higher-power amplifier is necessary.

Automotive Sandpaper Grit Numbers?

180 grit for sanding old paint surfaces, 320 grit for fine detailing, and 800 grit for sanding putty and other delicate areas. Automotive Detailing: Car polishing is a process in automotive detailing performed before waxing, glazing, or coating. Polishing—specifically fine polishing—is essential for achieving a mirror-like finish, which is a mandatory step in the glazing process. Advantages: Polishing does not harm the car paint; on the contrary, it better protects the paint. It removes oxidized paint and various contaminants from the vehicle body, eliminates fine scratches, and addresses minor paint damage and stains.
