Car wash under the scorching sun-car paint damaged
Many car owners like to wash their cars under the scorching sun, because they think it’s faster to dry the car surface. It’s incorrect. The convex lens effect formed by the water drops will heat up and dull the car paint. Under this condition, the car wax will be uneven as well. Therefore, it’s better to wash and wax the car under sheltered places, or on cloudy days, mornings and evenings.
Waxing in circles way-poor effect

Screw the bolt too tightly-permanent deformation
There are a lot of components connected to the car with screws and bolts. They must be assured enough pre-tighten function, but not too tight. If they are screwed too tightly, the connector will deform under the external force, on the other hand, the screws will be stretched, caused slide and break.
No charging to the storage battery-shorten the service life
The first time charging of storage battery can have a huge impact on its service life. If you don’t charge and just add some water for it, the service life will be shortened; direct charging will also shorten the life. Usually the first charge will be after adding the electrolyte, charging by small electric current about 1 hour and it will be ready for use.
Install new equipment randomly-affect driving safety
Cars are owners’ moving houses. It’s understandable for owners to pursuit comfortable and luxury experience using the car. But some owners will re-equip the car on their own, if it’s not handled properly, it will affect the car performance and controlling convenience, and leave the car side-effect or affect driving safety.
Without using the car for a long term or using just for short distance-damaged components
Some people love their cars too much to drive them, they only drive on holidays. In fact, it harms the car a lot. The engine and transmission box will get rusted directly contact with the air, and the storage battery will be short-lived due to a long-term natural discharging. The best way is to drive the car every few days and for 30-40 minutes per one time. Besides, frequent short-distance driving harms the car as well. The most serious wear happens during the period from startup to stable status. It spends 20 minutes to make up the lost power for the battery after one startup, so the short-distance driving habit will easily destroy your car.
