The hot and rainy weather in summer is not conducive to car maintenance

In summer, with high temperatures, especially in the south where the weather is humid and there is a lot of rain, some maintenance should be postponed. Otherwise, the following situations are likely to occur:


The underbody armor is not conducive to bonding. The chassis is relatively close to the ground and is particularly prone to rust. Therefore, it is very important to do a good job in cleaning and rust prevention of the car chassis. The general steps are to clean first and then carry out anti-rust treatment. The entire process will last for two hours. A rust-proof treatment for the chassis can basically maintain the rust-proof effect for many years. However, if underbody armor is applied in damp weather, when the resin and rubber in the anti-rust material adhere to the metal surface, an additional layer of water vapor will form, which is not conducive to their bonding. During this period, it is especially not advisable to use water-based underbody armor products. Moreover, when the air humidity exceeds 60%, it is not suitable for construction. Excessive moisture will make it difficult for the product to dry, directly affecting the adhesion of the product. However, if construction is carried out on sunny and windy days during this period, it will basically not be affected. Car front logo


The time for applying explosion-proof film has been prolonged. Generally, after applying the film, the car window glass cannot be raised or lowered for half a day or even about a day. However, if the car owner insists on applying the film in damp weather, it is advisable to extend this period to two or three days. The reason is that the moisture between the heat insulation film and the glass is not easy to evaporate. If the window is raised or lowered too early, it will affect the adhesion between the film surface and the car window.


Waxing is not easy to produce luster. Waxing in damp weather will greatly reduce its effect. At this time, there is too much moisture on the surface of the vehicle body. If hard wax is used, it will have poor adhesion to the paint surface after being applied. If water wax is chosen, although it can adhere to the paint surface, it is not easy to produce luster during polishing. It is only equivalent to wiping the vehicle surface with a cloth once.


Touch-up painting is not conducive to drying. Scratches and minor abrasions should be repaired as soon as possible, but touch-up painting should be avoided during the damp period. According to the strict touch-up painting process, before painting, it is necessary to fan the dust, dry grind, wet grind, and dry with an infrared lamp before painting. Touch-up painting is not advisable in humid weather.


Steam disinfection is of no use. Using steam disinfection is an effective way to kill bacteria inside a vehicle. However, in humid and hot weather, it is recommended to postpone the process as much as possible. Because using steam for disinfection, when the vehicle is already damp, will increase the generation of moisture inside the car, which is particularly harmful to the electrical appliances inside. Moreover, the general validity period of steam disinfection is one month. However, during the humid season, it will produce obvious mold. If construction is carried out during this period, its effect will be greatly offset, undoubtedly increasing the cost budget of car owners. In addition, spray-type disinfectants are not suitable for use at this time either, because the odors emitted by such products will adhere to the vehicle and take more time to dissipate than usual.
