slide 1: SURPRISING THINGS THAT
DAMAGE YOUR CAR PAINT
Everyone is concerned about their cars. It’s a universal issue and no car owner
is an exception. People are very possessive about their cars. But the one thing
that people are least bothered about damaging is their car’s paint. People
usually think that car paint can never be damaged. However that isn’t true. It is
very annoying to repair car paint and also very expensive. Also some people
are all about the appearance of their cars. And appearance translates to the
paint technically.
Often our cars’ paint is getting damaged in our daily routine. And contrary to
the popular belief vandalism is not the only thing that would damage the paint
job on your car. Here is a list of things that you should try to steer clear of to
protect your car paint.
1.Splattered Bugs:
The first and foremost thing that would ruin your car’s paint is splattered bugs.
Bugs no matter what size they are are very acidic. The small bugs sticking on
the bonnet of your car can cause damage to the car paint without you even
noticing it. If they are left unattended for long then it might etch itself into the
paint.
Bugs are usually attracted to your cars during long highway rides. Do not forget
to wash your car after long drives so that the bugs can be washed away. Also
use a mild soap solution or a washcloth to remove them.
2.Brake Fluid
Brake fluids are harmful to the surface of the car. Everyone does not believe in
it but it is better to be safe than sorry. When brake fluids come in contact with
the car surface they can damage the paint. Silicon-based brake fluids act like
paint thinner and it causes the paint to wear off.
Try using more durable car paints so that it is resistant to the fluids or be very
careful while using brake fluid.
3.Spilled Fuel

full to the brim. The paint can be severely damaged due to this as it comes in
contact with the topmost layer of the paint and erodes it. The stains can be
extremely difficult to remove. When working with fuels keep a washcloth on
hand to quickly wipe off any spills.
4.Fingerprints
Even if you are super careful with your car you can spot small scratches all over
the body. That is because your fingerprints are damaging the paint little by little.
Sometimes even a small touch on the body of your car can act like sandpaper
and due to the dust all around leaves small marks.
No matter how much you try to avoid it it is inevitable. Try to keep a cleaning
cloth with you all the time so that you can immediately clean your car as soon
as you spot dust building on it.
5.Bird Dropping
Bird excretions can be damaging to your outer surface. Bird droppings will leave
a permanent mark on the outside of your car because it is acidic. It also hardens
when it is exposed to the sun.
Clean your car with a washcloth as soon as you spot any droppings on it so that
your car can be dropping free.
