Due to the humid conditions in Mumbai, most cars are prone to rusting.
Some simple precautions you can take to prevent rusting are:
Your car paint plays a very important role in preventing of rust. Care must be taken while cleaning the car that you don't scratch the paint.
Keep a regular check - on the metal panels under the doors, around the wheels, in the trunk and the undercarriage of the car, as these parts are more liable to rust.
Regular polishing of your car protects the paint from damages that occur during normal use (like scratches, fading of paint etc.)
Waxing your car regularly too protects the car and makes it easier to clean the paint surface. Water beading indicates that your car needs a fresh coat of wax.
The underside of your car is especially prone to rusting -get the car underside washed with a high pressure water jet at least once a month. This can be done at service stations and some petrol pumps. |
