Properly maintain the car glass to ensure safe driving

the car glass is like the eyes of the car, which determines the safety of the car. The glass can't be maintained immediately, which will bring all kinds of troubles to car owners. Some car owners only care about the maintenance of some large parts during vehicle maintenance, but if you want to polish your eyes, it's easy to forget the glass in front of you. If intentional car owners clean the glass, it will also bring vitality to their driving. With a broad vision and a clear mirror, they will be in a better mood to drive. Today I will tell you about the maintenance of car glass

the windscreen of an automobile can determine whether the driver's line of sight is clear or not. In summer and winter, due to the complex climatic conditions, the windscreen is prone to problems such as blurred or disorderly reflection of the mirror. It is easy for drivers to confuse their line of sight and affect driving safety when driving at night or in bad weather. When there is a lot of rain in summer, there will be a lot of shellac like flying insects or traces left by rain on the glass surface. In winter, some rainy and snowy weather is easy to frost the mirror. These problems seem simple, but they are not simple to deal with

1. Rational use of glass water

there are many kinds of glass water sold in the domestic market now. Looking forward to next year, it is mainly divided into three kinds: glass water for summer, antifreeze glass water in winter and special antifreeze glass water. Among them, the glass water used in summer is mainly used to remove the fly residues on the mirror; Antifreeze type glass water in winter is mainly to ensure that when the temperature is lower than minus 20 ℃, all parts of the car will not be damaged by freezing; The special antifreeze glass water is mainly used in the particularly cold areas in the north, which can ensure that the car will not freeze at minus 40 ℃

in the usual glass maintenance process, we should choose the appropriate glass water according to the season and the specific weather conditions. When we find that the windshield glass surface is fuzzy, it will be much brighter to wash it with the appropriate glass water. If you find the problem of random reflection of glass at night, you can also wipe it with glass water. In addition, when running at high speed or with a lot of dust, the glass water will be used very quickly, and you should also pay attention to injecting new glass water immediately

some car owners think that cleaning the glass is just cleaning and decontamination, so using washing powder or detergent instead of glass water, some car owners are cheaper and directly use clean water instead, which all have hidden dangers. There are some sediments in chemical detergents such as washing powder, which are easy to corrode the rubber pipe after a long time, and will block the nozzle, which will damage the motor in serious cases. The general detergent will also constantly corrode the rubber pipe and accelerate the hardening of the rubber strip of the catalytic wiper. When the hardened rubber strip scrapes the windshield, it will accelerate the windshield surface to be scratched and scratched. If the wiper is replaced again, the cost will be dozens of times the price of glass water. Although ordinary clean water is very clean, there are also a lot of chemical residues in it. Over time, it will also lead to the blockage of the sprinkler and affect the spraying. Long term use will also increase the friction of the mirror, which is easy to leave slight scratches on the mirror when the wiper is cleaned

2. Love car film

in summer, a thin layer of heat insulation film can play a big role, which can not only resist the hot sun, but also heat insulation and UV protection. Industry insiders pointed out that the heat insulation effect is one of the important reasons for consumers to choose the film. In addition, the light transmittance and UV protection index of the heat insulation film are all things consumers must care about. However, many consumers have many misunderstandings about the purchase of thermal insulation film

automobile thermal insulation film can be divided into front, rear and side windscreens. Among them, the windshield has the highest requirements for thermal insulation film. According to the traffic safety regulations of the Ministry of public security, the light transmittance of the windscreen must be greater than 70%, on the premise of not affecting driving safety. The most taboo is to stick dark heat-insulating film on the front windshield. In addition, when selecting the UV resistance index of the thermal insulation film, the higher the better, because it can protect the components of the central console and prevent premature aging by long-term exposure to the sun

in terms of the heat-insulating film of the side windshield, it is also on the premise that it does not affect the owner's observation of the rearview mirror. The optional thermal insulation film of the side windshield is more flexible, and the color is also more changeable. For example, some car owners like blue insulation film, etc

in addition, the thermal insulation effect of the thermal insulation film is not directly related to the color depth, and the coating process in the thermal insulation film is the key factor to determine the thermal insulation effect. The higher the heat insulation rate, the stronger the reflection. Generally speaking, the heat insulation film with a heat insulation rate of 60% on the market is a good product. If the product itself claims to have a heat insulation rate of up to 80%, or even 90%, consumers need to be more attentive

if the vehicle is equipped with GPS navigator, the owner should choose non-metallic film products, because most explosion-proof films in the market are still metal films, which will indeed cause interference to GPS signals

in addition, there is a simple process for sticking the film: lay towels on the instrument, keep it clean and tidy, cut the film on the glass outside the window, shape the heat insulation film on the glass outside the window, cut the glass inside the corner according to the shape of the glass, clean the formal film, "water", blow the corners with a blower, and finally clean. These steps are indispensable. If the film pasting effect is not good, the owner can ask the store to rework, so that the car glass can be best protected

3. Glass insurance for your car

glass separate breakage insurance, that is, a kind of commercial insurance in which the insurance company is responsible for compensating the loss of glass separate breakage of the car during the use of the insurance vehicle. Broken glass means that only the windshield and window glass (excluding lamp and mirror glass) of the insured vehicle are damaged

in addition, if you insure at the rate of imported glass, the insurance company will compensate at the price of imported glass. If you choose to insure at the rate of domestic glass, the insurance company will compensate at the price of domestic glass

buying glass insurance for your car can effectively ensure the safety of glass, and the owner can drive with confidence
