    How to deal with minor scratches on a car?

    A small scratch is obviously not suitable through car insurance, and it is not enough to go to the car beauty shop to repair it. However, if the slight scratches of the car are not treated, it is easy to cause the car paint to rust, which is not conducive to future maintenance. What to do if there is a slight scratch on the car?

    Teach you two simple tricks to restore a good way to recover car scratches.

    The touch-up pen treats small scratches.

    If the rust is not very serious, you can use very fine water sandpaper dipped in water to gently grind away the rust spots, but do not grind in no direction, and polish in a straight line in the same direction. Wait until it is completely wiped off and apply a layer of primer. If it is a new scratch, wipe it off and apply the primer directly.

    After that, if the vehicle is equipped with a small can of original paint, you can wait for the primer to dry, then smooth it with sandpaper and apply the original paint on top of the primer. If you don't have the original paint, you can buy a touch-up pen and use it for coloring. Although this treatment is not as effective as going to a beauty salon, if it is a small or inconspicuous scar, it can also play a role in preventing the rust from expanding and aggravating.

    1. No matter what kind of car there are, there will be large or small scars. How much damage does the scar cause to the paint? How can I patch it? The correct method of disposal must be considered. If it's a scar that isn't very noticeable, it's a smart idea to leave it alone.

    2. If the car has abrasions, the best way to repair them is to fill the scars with the same coating agent as the body. The coating agent can be applied once, twice, and three times, and the more times it is used, the cleaner it will be applied. But even handling of the entire body is also important.

    3. If the small scar is only a very shallow scratch surface paint, it should be treated immediately with a mixture, and the wiping method is straight line wiping. Once the scar is gone, wipe it with a finer mixture before waxing.

    4. For deep scratches, the focus is to observe whether the metal surface is exposed, if you can't see the metal surface, it will not rust, and you can concentrate on painting the retouching paint. Point it up with the tip of the pen and wait for the paint to dry completely.

    5. Very deep but slender scars can be repaired well with colored putty. Use sandpaper to the scar, do not enlarge the scar surface casually, and it is important to remove the dirt. The putty should be carefully applied so that it completely enters the interior. Finally, the mixture is applied, waxed and the work is finished.

    6. Dentage treatment is one of the most troublesome work in body maintenance, the important thing is to lay a good foundation, if this step is not done well, no matter how good the painting is, the effect is not good. When spraying paint, don't forget to cover the surroundings with newspaper so that the paint does not spread around.

    7. After discovering the rust, immediately start to solve it, if you leave it alone, the rust point will slowly expand. The way to prevent rust is to wipe it clean with sandpaper or use a chemical synthetic agent that changes the rust spot. It is used separately depending on the situation.

    8. The waterproof strips pasted around the doors and trunks are easy to peel off and twist. However, if it is not cracked or deformed, it can be used again, and it can be used again by simply re-attaching it to prevent water leakage. It is also important to restore the elasticity of the rubber itself with a protectant.

    9. The scar treatment method of the bumper is to cut off the burrs and coat the potholes with putty to smooth them. Dedicated putty, prepare a variety of colors, choose the closest color. A bumper in the same color as the body. Painting is important.

    This is not easy to judge, if it has just appeared, you can call up the surrounding monitoring. Scratches on the hood may have been hit by stones at high speeds, or they could have been scratched by some tree branches. There are a lot of scratches on the surface of the car paint, and these scratches are basically on the varnish layer, which is generally easier to leave scratches when washing the car.

    The body paint is divided into four layers, from the inside to the outside, which are the electrophoresis layer, the middle coat, the color paint layer, and the clear coat layer. After the body is assembled, the entire body is soaked in the electric pool so that an electrophoretic layer can be formed on the surface of the body. The function of the electrophoretic layer is to prevent rust.

    Once the electrophoretic layer is formed, the robot sprays the middle coat, which also acts as a rust prevention and improves the bonding ability to the next coat.

    The third layer is the color paint layer, and this layer of paint is the body of various colors that we can usually see. The role of the color paint layer is to make the body beautiful. The fourth layer of paint is the varnish layer, which is on the outermost part and plays the role of protecting the color paint layer, and can also improve the gloss of the car paint.

    The small scratches that are usually left are on the varnish layer, and these scratches can be removed by polishing. However, it is not recommended that the owner polish frequently, which will reduce the thickness of the paint layer, and the gloss of the body paint will decrease over time.

    If the scratch hurts the paint layer, it needs to be repaired by spray painting. If the scratches are very small, it is not recommended for the owner to repair them with painting. Because the quality of the paint sprayed after the car is not as good as the paint sprayed on the production line***.

    Car scratch treatment

    First of all, we can use some daily necessities to deal with scratches on the body, such as toothpaste. We can apply toothpaste to a wet towel (note that the wet towel should not have too much moisture, be sure to wring it out), and then wipe the scratch area repeatedly, because toothpaste, like car wax, contains very fine particles, and when you slowly wipe the scratch, the slight scratch will be polished clean.

    After repeated wiping, we can dry the vehicle. And the nail polish that our girlfriends or wives often use.

    It can also be used to repair scratches. We can choose a nail polish that is close to the color of the body, and then apply it to the scratches on the body, and after the application is done, we must also remember to dry it.

    In addition, car wax is also a very good choice. The principle of treating scratches with toothpaste is exactly the same as that of treating scratches with car wax, and the same is the use of small particles to grind minor scratches clean.

    At the same time, if the deformation of the body is not severe, we can also repair the deformation ourselves, for example, using a depression repairer. When we use a dent repairer, we need to first use the spacer.

    Apply hot melt adhesive on top.

    Then glue the spacer to the hollow, then insert the glove into the screw of the spacer and rotate the nut.

    Slowly pull the depression back.

    If the dent repair is finished, then we use a scraper to remove the gasket, taking care not to scratch the car body when taking it. If the depression is too large, we can also repeat it several times until the depression is pulled back.

    The scratches on the hood of your car don't look like they're intentional, or like someone made them with a hard object. It's likely that something quite heavy was placed on your engine trap cover, and it moved sideways when it was removed, so it left a trace. If it's a scratch on a key, it's impossible for the two marks to be so parallel.

    It's also possible that someone has swept the dirt off your car with a broom. It's also possible that when you are wiping the car, there are stones and sand grains on the rag. In short, it doesn't look like someone is sabotaging.
