Jakarta –
The transition season is a serious threat for four-wheeled vehicles. This is because the weather, which occasionally rains and occasionally gets hot, can damage the exterior of the car if it is not cared for properly.
“What we all need to know is that rainwater contains acids which, if allowed to dry, will become mold and damage the paint of our cars. Therefore, it is better if the car is washed and cleaned immediately because acidic substances make the paint dull and moldy,” said Reeza Budhisurya as Director Optimo Indonesia.
Here are 4 ways to keep the car body shiny in the transition season:

Washing the Car After Getting Rainwater
Most people still underestimate the dangers of rainwater by letting it dry on the car body, but as we all know, rainwater itself contains acids which, if allowed to dry, will become mold and damage the car’s paint. Therefore, it’s best to wash the car immediately and wipe it dry to remove acids that can make car paint dull and moldy. You don’t have to use soap, rinsing the car with clean water is enough to remove rainwater from the car body.
Covering the Car with a Cover
Covering the car with a car cover can make the car paint last longer and stay shiny. But this is not recommended when the car is parked in the open at night or when it rains, because it will make the car body moist so it becomes easier to have the potential for mold to develop, as well as hot dust that sticks to the paint surface exposed to the wind will become more stubborn.
Avoid Direct Sunlight
Sunlight can reduce the color content of car paint. For this reason, it is recommended that the car should not be exposed to direct sunlight too often so that the color of the car paint becomes more durable and remains shiny.
Using Wax or Cleaning Liquid
Of course, just washing with plain water after being exposed to rainwater and dust is not enough. One of the most effective treatments is car paint coating. If you do this, then the vehicle body can close the pores and add a layer to the car paint, and ensure that it is safer and does not cause problems when it rains.
By doing this treatment, the car will avoid water spots on the car body, because rainwater that sticks to the car body immediately drops and does not touch the paint surface for too long. So that stains will not appear on the surface that are difficult to remove, but it can also protect the car body from fine scratches and can protect and increase the resistance of car paint by forming a thin layer on the car body.
