Rust Prevention in Automobile Industry
No matter the age of the vehicle that you buy, you can still bring out the beauty in that vehicle by taking the right steps, so why would you not take steps to protect that investment. Rust prevention is something you need to pay attention to and it is a step that you can take to really extend the life of your vehicle. This is especially true if you live in Lagos Nigeria where corrosion can be a real issue. We are talking about areas such as those that are close to the ocean, as you have moisture and salt to deal with, both of which will eat up your vehicle from the inside out rather quickly.
A small scratch or chip in the paint can allow corrosion to take a hold in the exposed metal, so have those little scratches repaired as quickly as possible. Also, when you clean, add a nice coat of wax to the exterior paint for yet another level of protection.
Always insist on getting a ‘quality’ durable painting next time you visit a car spray booth. It is not enough to pay less and get less quality painting that will not last long before you re-paint again. In the real sense, good painting glows with time, as you wash the vehicle the pigments in the paint which have been formulated according to their proposed use – primer, undercoat, special finishes (matt, gloss, heat resistance, anti-corrosion, abrasion resistance) serve as barrier coating to protect your vehicle.
