Will Factory Paint Naturally Crack?
1 Answers
Under normal vehicle usage and proper maintenance, factory paint will not crack. Below is relevant information about paint cracking: 1. Explanation: If corrosive substances such as bird droppings or tree resin adhere to the car body and remain uncleaned for an extended period, exposure to summer heat and sunlight can cause the paint to crack. 2. Precautions: During vehicle use, pay attention to paint maintenance. Avoid washing the car under direct sunlight to prevent paint cracks caused by rapid temperature changes. Regularly inspect the paint surface; if cracks or scratches are found, address them promptly to prevent further damage from weathering. For minor scratches or chips, common solutions include sanding the surface with water sandpaper and applying touch-up paint or using the complementary paint provided by the manufacturer. If these are unavailable, evenly applying white toothpaste can also be effective, especially for white paint. Avoid using car covers for heat protection, as they can cause friction between the paint surface and the cover interior, especially in breezy conditions, which may inadvertently wear down the paint surface.
