Will Car Paint Peel Off?
2 Answers
Car paint can peel off. The method for car painting is as follows: 1. Clean the car thoroughly; 2. Sand the car surface with 600-grit sandpaper until it feels rough, which helps the paint adhere better and makes it less likely to peel; 3. When spraying paint, hold the spray nozzle about 20 centimeters away from the car and spray evenly, applying multiple coats; 4. Maintain a 10-minute interval between each coat to allow the paint to dry and prevent sagging; 5. If sagging occurs, let it dry completely, then sand it with 600-grit sandpaper and spray paint from a distance to cover it evenly; 6. After the paint is completely dry, apply a layer of clear coat to enhance gloss, protect the paint surface, and make it more wear-resistant.
With over 20 years of auto repair experience, I can tell you that paint durability truly depends on craftsmanship and materials. If newly sprayed paint bubbles or peels within days, it's usually due to improper surface preparation—like residual grease, rust spots, or insufficient sanding of old paint. A skilled painter will meticulously sand the original surface to create texture, then apply specialized primer for better adhesion. Proper baking in a spray booth with precise temperature control is crucial; otherwise, trapped moisture will cause future peeling. Those cheap roadside shop jobs cutting corners on labor and materials? The glossy finish might last half a year before patchy flaking begins. My advice: Don't chase the lowest price—invest in certified shops for lasting results.
