Reasons for the wiper making a squeaking noise when wiping the glass: 1. Wiper's own issue: Wipers are rubber products, and prolonged use can cause aging and hardening. If the wiper hasn't been in contact with water for a long time, it becomes dry, leading to friction problems during operation. 2. There is a foreign object between the wiper and the glass. Stop the wiper in the middle position, then gently lift and twist it downward a few times. After resetting, check if the noise is eliminated. If the wiper makes noise both during the upward and downward strokes, the wiper blade needs to be replaced. Wipers, also known as windscreen wipers, are devices used to wipe away raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and enhancing driving safety.

Which Interior Cleaner is Good?

Different types of interior cleaners have their own advantages. Here are the relevant introductions: 1. Organic Cleaners: Organic cleaners are mainly used to remove grease, lubricants, dirt, silicone polishes, rubber processing aids, and fingerprints from the car body surface. Currently, commonly used organic solvents in China include kerosene, gasoline, toluene, xylene, trichloroethylene, carbon tetrachloride, and No. 200 solvent gasoline. Imported organic solvents include Prep-sol, P, etc. When using organic solvents, avoid contact with plastic and rubber parts to prevent aging. Additionally, use imported cleaning solvents to wipe clean on thermoplastic acrylic paint surfaces. Carefully read the product instructions. Due to the above characteristics of organic solvents, it is necessary to choose them reasonably based on actual needs in car detailing. 2. Two-in-One Cleaners: Two-in-one cleaners, also known as two-in-one shampoos, are high-grade surface cleaners. The term 'two-in-one' means both cleaning and care, combining cleaning and waxing functions, meeting the requirements for quick cleaning and waxing. Two-in-one cleaners are mainly composed of various surfactants. The waxing component is a specially formulated water wax that forms a wax film on the paint surface during cleaning, enhancing the car's brightness and effectively protecting the paint. 3. M-2001 Shampoo: The cleaning of vehicle interiors mainly targets seats, floors, ceilings, and dashboards. When using cleaners, choose different cleaners based on the different materials of the vehicle interior. For cleaning pure leather dashboards, do not use plastic cleaners; instead, use leather conditioners. For plastic dashboards, dashboard wax can be used.

What to Do If Your Car Gets Scratched by Another Vehicle on the Highway?

In the event of a scrape on the highway, first determine if there are any casualties, and then proceed accordingly. No injuries: If there are none, according to legal requirements, the incident should be resolved using the "quick processing" method, and you must not wait for traffic police on the spot. In this case, try to take photos from various angles to gather evidence. After moving the vehicles to a location that does not obstruct traffic, both parties should negotiate a resolution. If negotiation fails, call the police. Injuries: Immediately evacuate all passengers from the vehicle. Remember, they should not remain inside the car or linger near the accident scene. They should immediately move to the emergency stopping lane or outside the highway to await rescue, and set up a hazard warning sign behind the vehicles.

What to Do About Aging Car Window Seals?

Window seal aging requires timely replacement. Maintenance: If you notice abnormal noises or sticking when operating the windows, you can use window lubricant. Window lubricant provides lubrication, reducing friction between the seal and the window glass, effectively eliminating mechanical noise and resolving issues like window squeaks or sticking. Additionally, it effectively cleans window stains, prevents seal aging and corrosion, restores flexibility, prevents water leakage, and offers moisture-proof sealing functions. Functions: On one hand, it enhances the overall body strength of the vehicle. On the other hand, it plays a significant role in passive safety protection.
