Jakarta –
Apart from the motorbike, it turns out that the car frame also has a risk of porous due to rust. Unfortunately, many vehicle owners are not aware of the symptoms. So, how do you take care of the car frame so it doesn’t rust to the point of porous?
Yanto Rudianto as Body Paint Analyst Auto2000 explained, rust is one of the main enemies of the frame. Because, he said, it spreads quickly and the effects are very detrimental.
“A rust attack is difficult to detect and becomes a big problem if it is not treated immediately, as the body is porous and brittle. The car has been coated with anti-rust material, but not all metal areas are coated and there is a risk of it eroding with use,” said Yanto through his official statement, quoted Saturday (26/8).

The frame is the component that is most susceptible to rust. This is because these components are often exposed to dirt from splashed wheels when crossing wet roads.
In addition, the process of washing the car that is not right can also be the cause of the growth of rust. Such as the quality of groundwater with a high mineral content as well as washing tools and abrasive cleaning fluids, giving opportunities to erode paint and anti-rust protection.
Also, be careful carrying corrosive chemicals in the car because they will cause rust on the upholstery frame, bolts, nuts and iron components.
Tips for Caring for Car Frames So They Don’t Rust and Porous
The risk of being affected by rust can be reduced by car care, such as washing the car regularly as a crucial first step. Pay attention to the washing location, not in the hot sun which makes the water evaporate quickly even though the dirt is still left behind. Avoid washing under trees because there is a risk of getting tree sap or animal excrement, or washing at night because the car is difficult to dry and becomes damp.
Use a suitable tool, such as a kanebo cloth to wipe off the water, and a microfiber cloth at the finishing stage so that it is completely dry. Use a plastic brush and non-abrasive cleaning agent. Don’t force it to use groundwater that is not proper because it increases the potential for rust.

Make sure nothing is missed, especially the underside which is prone to rust. Also make sure the car body is dry and there is no residual water which can trigger rust and water spots. Do a car body inspection if there is potential for rust which is indicated by red dots on the metal surface that peel off when scraped.
In addition, you can also use anti-rust coatings. Because, thus, the level of protection becomes stronger.
