Your car’s paint is constantly exposed to various elements that can cause fading, scratches, and deterioration. Understanding the common causes of paint damage can help you take better care of your vehicle.
1. Sun Damage and Oxidation
Prolonged exposure to sunlight can break down the paint’s protective layer, causing it to fade and lose its shine. Regular waxing or ceramic coatings can help prevent sun damage.
2. Bird Droppings and Tree Sap
Acidic substances from bird droppings and tree sap can eat into your car’s paint if not cleaned quickly. Wash your car regularly to prevent staining and damage.
3. Road Debris and Scratches
Rocks, gravel, and road debris can chip your paint and expose the metal underneath. If left untreated, this can lead to rust formation.
4. Improper Washing Techniques
Using rough sponges or dirty cloths can cause micro-scratches on your car’s paint. Always use a soft microfiber cloth and proper car shampoo to clean your vehicle.
