Bad influences which pollen and yellow sand have on the car body

“Is it OK just removing them?”

Many people might think like these, but there are two general demerits.
In fact, they are more troublesome than you think.

(1) The looking gets poorer


First of all, this is one of the most important points!

Whole a car is covered with whitish or yellowish spots by pollen and yellow sand.
Windshields grow yellowish as well.
Especially, parts which are not steep (for example, a bonnet or a roof) are easy to adhere due to the large areas.
In this case, your precious car will be spoiled even though you apply expensive car coating or car wax as the foundation.

Let’s see pollen and yellow sand individually next.

【Pollen】

Pollen discharges “Pectin” which is a substance when it gets wet by rain.
When it adheres to the car body and if it contracts with the car paint surface, it will ruggedness which looks like a stain.

【Yellow sand】

Yellow sand is a thing which is flown from China by the prevailing westerlies. It is occurred by a sandstorm in the Chines deserts and yellow soil areas.
As its name suggests, rough granularity sands adhere to the car body.

(2) The car body is damaged

They are not only the looking gets poorer. Rather than damages are more troublesome.
Both of pollen and yellow sand have bad influence on the car body.
Especially, pollen is the same damage as when you drive your car which is covered with bird droppings.
In here, we would like to comment individually, too.

【Pollen】

As we said above, it becomes ruggedness when Pectin dries and contracts.
About this, it looks “water spot”, however, it is the same situation for scratches truly.
Then if you leave it, the scratches will eat into the car body and they will spread deeper and deeper.
Therefore, it is troublesome because you can remove the surface of pollen, but you cannot fill the ruggedness even though you use chemical car-care goods.

In addition, if the depth of the scratches is deep, you cannot remove with polishing.
Therefore you should better to deal with it as soon as possible.
Sometimes it cannot be removed only by washing or wiping with a hot towel in spite of the early stage.

However, there are several ways to remove them by heating easily… we will talk about it in the next paragraph.

【Yellow sand】

To be honest, yellow sand will change its circumstances by its flying route.
Then it is difficult to find what it is, so it also difficult to deal with this by using chemical goods.
However, usually it has a lot of calcium, so it will cause ion deposits (strong water spots) easily.
May be as you know, it eats into the glass layer and the car paint surface gradually. It also damages them, too.

For this problem, washing and polishing is important in the early stage to remove.
We will talk about how to detail with it in the other paragraph, too.

These two demerits are so serious, aren’t they?
In the worst case, the car body will cannot be recovered anymore due to rots even though you apply glass coating.

Please try to remove pollen and yellow sand when you find them immediately without any underestimates.
