Chips on the car body are not only an aesthetic problem, but also a potential source of corrosion. Fortunately, there are a number of measures you can take to help protect your car from chipping on the track. You can also make your car more practical and improved if you use tuning accessories, a large assortment of which is available in our product catalog.

Means and methods

1. Keeping a distance:

  • The easiest and most effective way to protect your car from chipping is to keep a distance from the vehicle in front of you.
  • The greater the distance, the less chance there is of getting hit by gravel from under the wheels of the car driving ahead.

2. Choosing the right lane:

  • If possible, try to drive in the left lane.
  • Cars in the left lane usually travel at higher speeds, which means fewer rocks will fly out from under their wheels.

3. Use of protective films:

  • Anti-gravel film is a transparent film that is applied to the most vulnerable parts of the car body (hood, bumper, rear-view mirrors).
  • It is able to protect the paint coating from scratches, chips and dents.
  • Ceramic coating is another option that is more durable and scratch resistant.

4. Installation of deflectors:

  • Deflectors are special covers on the hood and windshield that divert the flow of air upwards and thereby protect them from stones.

Prevention and elimination

  • Dirt and sand can scratch the car's paintwork, so it's important to wash it regularly.
  • For washing, use special car shampoos and soft sponges.
  • If your car already has chips, they need to be removed as soon as possible.
  • For this, you can use special repair pencils or contact a service center.

Remember:

  • Car chip protection is a comprehensive approach.
  • Use all available protection methods, and then your car will keep its perfect appearance for a long time.

By following these simple tips, you can significantly reduce the risk of chips appearing on your car and preserve its beauty for many years.
