Will Alcohol Corrode Car Paint?
1 Answers
Alcohol can corrode car paint. As an organic solvent, frequent use of alcohol to clean a car can cause corrosion to the paint surface. If you only occasionally use alcohol to remove stains, it may not have a significant impact. However, it is best to rinse the area with water immediately after using alcohol to clean stains; otherwise, the paint surface may become corroded and lose its gloss. The main component of car paint is resin, which has 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 molecular gaps and micropores of the car paint, forming a transparent crystalline layer similar to a smartphone screen protector on the surface. This layer enhances the hardness and scratch resistance of the paint surface, providing long-term sealing protection and maintaining the car paint's lasting shine.
