mobilinanews (Jakarta) – One of the important components in cars and is often used is the car door.
This area has a long rubber list around the door, which functions as an impact damper when opening and closing the door.
Many also add universal aftermarket rubber doors that can increase the sound level of the car cabin.
If it has been used for a long time and is not maintained, then its function will decrease and it should be replaced.
As for the characteristics of the door rubber, its performance can be seen from its hard texture and is no longer elastic.
“How to find out the characteristics of the door rubber must be replaced. First, the shape turns flat. Less soundproof in the cabin so you can hear the wind sound like a whistle. Finally, the rubber looks physically damaged. If these features begin to look and feel, it is better if this device is replaced by a new one, “explained Rafi’i Sinurat, Head of the Astra Peugeot Workshop, Cilandak branch.
Rafi’I emphasized, if a flat-shaped car rubber was found. Usually when closing the car door, a metal sound appears like a clash apart from the lack of soundproofing in the car cabin. It will go awry if these components are not only worn out, but are badly damaged or torn.
You can be sure that water from outside is very easy to infiltrate the cabin. Obviously can’t allow it. At least we can still try to make the rubber on the car door durable as well as durable.
“Most importantly, choose a shady parking lot. Because the car is shaded from exposure to the hot sun, it makes the rubber, especially the door, not dry quickly and can last longer. Then avoid direct contact with the rubber, especially when getting in and out of the car or getting in and out of things. Because hard friction can make the rubber tear easily, ”added Rafi’i.
Get used to cleaning the dirt stuck to the door rubber. The trick is to wash, flush between the grooves on the car rubber.
Use clean water to remove dirt, or you can also use silicone liquid to keep the rubber moist.
This fluid can also be used when the car is exposed to sunlight which causes the door rubber to dry out and doesn’t last long. (Wan)
