Generally speaking, car static electricity comes from the friction of fiber fabrics, especially chemical fiber products, which are more likely to be electrified by friction. Therefore, when choosing seat covers, cushions, floor mats and other supplies, it is best to use genuine leather, wool or pure cotton products. We all know that car wax has anti-static effect. Of course, different types of car wax have different anti-static capabilities. You can use special anti-static car wax.
Rubber will become hard and brittle as the temperature drops, the friction coefficient will decrease, and air leakage and tire punctures will easily occur. In summer, due to high temperatures, tire pressure cannot be too high. On the contrary, in autumn, because the temperature is relatively low, the tire pressure needs to be increased. And the tires should be checked frequently for obvious trauma, scratches, etc., and the debris in the tire tread should also be cleaned regularly.
【Car owner’s home car knowledge】After autumn, as the temperature becomes increasingly cold, vehicles are also facing the test of ice. "How to maintain cars in autumn and winter" has become a major confusion for many car lovers. Car maintenance in autumn and winter mainly requires attention to the following five aspects:
1. Strictly prevent static electricity
Generally speaking, car static electricity comes from the friction of fiber fabrics, especially chemical fiber products, which are more likely to be electrified by friction. Therefore, when choosing seat covers, cushions, floor mats and other supplies, it is best to use genuine leather, wool or pure cotton products. We all know that car wax has anti-static effect. Of course, different types of car wax have different anti-static capabilities. You can use special anti-static car wax.
2. Tire maintenance and checking tire pressure
Rubber will become hard and brittle as the temperature drops, the friction coefficient will decrease, and air leakage and tire punctures will easily occur. In summer, due to high temperatures, tire pressure cannot be too high. On the contrary, in autumn, because the temperature is relatively low, the tire pressure needs to be increased. And the tires should be checked frequently for obvious trauma, scratches, etc., and the debris in the tire tread should also be cleaned regularly.
3. Cleaning the ventilation system
Winter is the peak season for allergic rhinitis and asthma. If you are allergic to dust and pollen, it is best to install a filter in the air conditioning system so that dust, pollen and bacteria can be kept out of the car.
In addition, the air circulation of the car is very important, which directly affects the air quality inside the car. If you want to test the air circulation speed in the car, you can do a small experiment yourself: light multiple cigarettes at the same time in a closed car. After two minutes, thick smoke will fill the car. At this time, start the air circulation system in the car. If no smoke can be seen in the car in less than 30 seconds, it proves that the car's air circulation system is operating in excellent condition.
4. External maintenance: pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene
In autumn mornings, there is a lot of dew, and the surface of the car is often very wet. If there are obvious scratches on the surface of the vehicle, it should be spray-painted in time to prevent the scratched parts from getting damp and rusting. In addition, due to the erosion of rain acid in summer rain and direct sunlight in summer, the car paint will inevitably be oxidized. When the seasons change, it is best for car owners to do a comprehensive cleaning of the surface of their car, from cleaning, polishing to waxing, etc.
Special car cleaning fluid should be used when cleaning the car, because long-term use of washing powder or soap will cause the paint surface to lose its luster, and in severe cases, it will corrode the paint surface.
5. Internal cleaning
In addition to cleaning the car body, also pay attention to cleaning the car interior. You can use a towel or sponge dipped in soapy water or detergent to scrub every corner of the dashboard. Before cleaning the chemical fiber surface, use a vacuum cleaner to suck up the dust, then soak it with a special textile cleaner for a few minutes. After the dust dissolves, wipe it clean with a towel. If there is no special detergent, you can use soapy water or dishwashing liquid. Just wipe the leather products with a towel dipped in a little water.
By doing these five things, you and your car will be happy and survive the harsh winter smoothly!
