Car Paint Protection

When it comes to car paint, prevention is always better than cure. For minor scratches, you can take steps early on to avoid further damage. Protecting your car’s paint when it's new is essential. One effective method is applying a mirror glaze, which is made of high-molecular polymers. This product is applied directly onto the car’s surface using a polishing machine or manually after cleaning. Once applied, it forms a protective mesh-like layer that enhances the hardness of the paint and offers resistance to heat and UV rays. With regular waxing, this protective effect can last up to a year.

Dealing with Minor Scratches

If your car has shallow scratches, they can often be fixed quickly through polishing. Using a polishing wheel along with a brightening agent helps remove oxidation from the car’s surface, smoothing out fine scratches. The chemical agents also help improve the paint’s condition, giving it a fresh look. This process usually takes between 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the car’s condition.

Repairing Deeper Scratches

If the scratches have exposed the primer, a more involved repair is needed. In such cases, it's best to visit a professional body shop that offers scratch repair services. They use specialized refinish paints to fill in the damaged areas without having to repaint the entire panel. These paints dry quickly and match the original color perfectly, ensuring no visible differences or marks after the repair.

Expert Tips for Car Paint Care

1. For shallow scratches, start by sanding the area, removing any dirt or rust, then apply a paint reduction treatment, followed by waxing. Finish off with polishing until the surface is smooth and shiny.

2. For medium to deep scratches, grinding alone may not be enough. If the scratch is less than 5mm deep, you can fill it with putty and then proceed with repairs. If the metal is exposed, make sure to clean the area thoroughly, neutralize any rust, apply a primer, and repeat the painting, drying, and sanding process.

Safety Tips for Paint Work

Paints and thinners are flammable and harmful if inhaled. They can irritate the eyes, respiratory system, and skin. Always handle them with care.

First, always wear proper protective gear, including a respirator and protective clothing. Make sure to read the safety data sheet before use. Stir the paint thoroughly before applying to ensure an even color.

Second, in case of an emergency: If someone experiences breathing difficulties, move them to fresh air immediately. If there's no breathing, perform CPR and call for medical help. If paint gets into the eyes, rinse them with water for at least 15 minutes and see a doctor. If the skin is exposed, wash the area with water and soap. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting—keep the person calm and seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Third, in case of fire, use foam, dry powder, or carbon dioxide extinguishers. Avoid using water, as it may spread the fire.
