Matters needing attention in the daily maintenance of the wheel hub:
1. When the temperature of the wheel hub is high, it should be allowed to cool naturally before cleaning. Never use cold water to clean it; otherwise, the aluminum alloy wheel hub will be damaged, and even the brake disc will be deformed to affect the braking effect. In addition, cleaning the aluminum platform gold wheel hub with detergent at high temperature will cause a chemical reaction on the surface of the wheel hub, which will lose its luster and affect the appearance.
2. When there is hard-to-remove asphalt on the wheel hub, if general cleaners are useless, try to remove it with a brush, but do not use hard brushes, especially iron brushes, so as not to damage the surface of the wheel hub. Some experts have introduced a folk prescription for removing asphalt: that is, to use medicinal "activating oil" to apply it, which can get unexpected results. Car owners may wish to try it.
Minor scratches can be repaired by themselves:
first step:Clean the hub. We can use paint thinner to wipe around the scar to remove dirt. The deepest part of the scratch is difficult to remove dirt, then use a toothpick to clean it thoroughly. When cleaning, in order to prevent the irrelevant parts from being painted by mistake, it is best to carefully stick the adhesive tape around the scar.
Step two:The car owner arranges the tip of the brush, and paints the modified paint on the damaged part of the wheel hub. After the paint is dry, it is slightly protruding, so that the car owner can observe.
third step:After the car owner waits for the finishing paint to dry completely, apply it with water-resistant paper dipped in soapy water to smooth the surface. Then use a compound to buff out the shine and finish with wax.
the fourth step:If the car owner finds deep scars on the wheel hub, he must observe whether the metal surface is exposed. If the metal surface is not visible, it will not rust, and he can concentrate on painting the finishing paint. Use the tip of the pen to go up little by little, and then wait for the paint to dry completely. If you find exposed metal, it's best to replace it.
