South Motors Infiniti Shares Tips to Prevent Paint Peeling and Rusting
Many vehicles which have witnessed countless Florida sunrises show their age, if they are not taken care of. You know that paint you see peeling, ever so discreetly from the corner of a neighbor’s car or a creeping reveal of rust near that nick on your car you thought would go away? That’s corrosion, caused by the sun and salt air/water, and its damaging effects are more ruthless in our area because of our proximity to the ocean and our water sources. What’s more, are the consequences that corrosion provokes can be unseen, they are hiding in you undercarriage. Below are some general prevention tips that can help you to reduce the effects of salt corrosion to your car.
- Wash your car regularly. Even though it may not have a rained in weeks, give you car a wipe down. Many sprinkler systems in Florida are fueled by well water, which by nature in Florida, is much more salinated.
- Wax your car at least twice a year. Waxing your car will help to create a barrier between the salinated water and your car’s paint.
- Fix chips in your paint immediately. Small chips that seem harmless can grow rapidly and cause much bigger problems with rust and paint peeling.
- Park in shaded areas, parking decks, or use a car cover. UVA and UVB rays, just like the ones that you wear sunscreen against, can hurt your car too. Your car has a “skin” too, with pores that expand in the hot sun and can absorb dirt and moisture.
