I have a super car sales system

Chapter 074: The shady scene in preparation ([-])

"Isn't this pure deception?" Lin Yuan realized that some people's bottom line is so low that it is frightening to make money.

"It's a lie." Liu Zhihua said without hesitation, "Small problems have become big problems, and small maintenance has become a big package. Those who can be replaced will not be repaired, because the speed of direct replacement of spare parts is fast and the profit is high. Excessive repairs make money. many."

Liu Zhihua talked a lot about the tricks and inside stories in the maintenance. Lin Yuan looked down on these alternative ways of making money in the maintenance, not because he was so noble, or how he disdained to use them, but because he thought that the current business The environment is very different from before.

In the 90s and [-]s China was flooded with counterfeit products, not to mention anything else, just small shops selling daily necessities, which one did not have fake cigarettes and fake alcohol?

Is it rare for rice to be mixed with sand when industrial salt is passed off as edible salt?

And now?

The whole of China is in a situation of oversupply, and e-commerce is more developed, ranging from home appliances to oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar. People have a lot of choice. They can buy from physical stores or the Internet. starve?

So now the big and small supermarkets in the community try to sell fake cigarettes and alcohol?

Not only will he be spurned by the neighbors in the neighborhood, but it is estimated that he will be reported within half an hour, and the industrial and commercial taxation will come to check.

In addition, Lin Yuan is now a man with a system, with the blessing of bugs, and he still thinks about cheating, which is too cheap and disappointing.

However, there are still novices among the car owners who don't know anything about car maintenance. Lin Yuan asked: "I have gained knowledge today. It turns out that the water for maintenance is so deep, how can I avoid being cheated?"

"How can we avoid being scammed? There is no way to avoid it." Liu Zhihua smiled, "This is what 4S shops and auto beauty shops do. They have seen all kinds of car owners, and they can be said to be countless. Speak up and know the details of the car owner.

They have prepared countless cars, what situation have they not encountered?

They think about this all day long, who can beat them?

If you are a novice Xiaobai, you will be cheated 100%, even if you are a veteran driver, you may be tricked. Take engine oil as an example, the simplest 5-30, 5-40, full synthetic, semi synthetic, what is the difference? Not to mention that the novice car owner doesn't know what's going on, even some car owners who have driven the car for five or six years, he can't explain it very clearly, let alone other projects with deeper water. "

Liu Zhihua told Lin Yuan that although it cannot be avoided, it can save money.

Before going for maintenance, you must first read your maintenance manual, and remember the replacement cycle of five oils and three waters, spark plugs, oil filters, etc. recommended by the OEM.

When you arrive at a 4S store or an auto repair shop, don’t rush to make preparations, give the master a cigarette, be sweeter, be more polite, have a chat, and inquire about some situations.

Although these are not very useful, you can still get some news.

When formally doing maintenance, if the 4S shop says to replace certain things, but you remember that the maintenance period has not yet expired, you can confidently say that there is no need to do it, unless there is a problem with the inspection.

For example, Passat officially recommends a maintenance cycle of [-] kilometers. Before the first [-] kilometers of a new car, it only needs a small warranty, that is, replacing the engine oil and oil filter.

At [-] kilometers, it is recommended to replace the air filter, air conditioner filter and spark plug in addition to the engine oil and oil filter.

At [-] kilometers, it is recommended to replace the brake fluid...

If it is [-] kilometers, let the car owner replace the air filter element, air conditioning filter element, spark plug, brake fluid, transmission fluid, etc. It is clear that it is over-maintenance and is cheating people.

The second is to avoid waste, avoid fake and shoddy products, and shoddy products.

Choose oil, spark plugs, air conditioning filters, etc. according to your own economic situation and the model of the car.

For example, it shows that the use of ordinary spark plugs can meet the demand, and they insist that car owners use iridium.

For example, take the ordinary air conditioner filter element, insisting that it is an imported product whose price has doubled.

For example, the fake engine oil was sold for sky-high prices.

Liu Zhihua was afraid that Lin Yuan would not believe it, so he gave an example. Some time ago, a well-known international engine oil agent sold fake products by himself, and the value of the case was almost hundreds of millions.

The second is to pay attention to whether there are some cleaning items.

Engine oil, engine filter, spark plug, etc. must be replaced in a certain period, but such as throttle valve cleaning, air conditioner cleaning, engine cleaning, etc., strictly speaking, they are not considered maintenance items, and there is no maintenance manual at all.

Whether to do this kind of cleaning project depends on the specific situation.

Idle speed does not shake, why clean the throttle?

The air conditioner is in good condition and there is no peculiar smell. Why do you clean the air conditioner?

The engine protection agent is said to have anti-wear, cleaning, and anti-corrosion functions, which can make the life of the engine and gearbox longer. In fact, the engine oil already has cleaning and dispersion, extreme pressure and anti-wear, anti-corrosion and anti-rust, friction improvement, anti-oxidation, and anti-foaming. For these functions of fluidity, changing to new oil is actually protecting the engine.

Engine protection agent is not necessary, basically there is no need, except to spend more money.

Finally, don’t go to the VIP lounge to drink tea or play with your mobile phone, try to look around your car,

Even if some 4S stores do not allow car owners to go next to the car under the pretext of safety, they should stand as far away as possible, or supervise through the glass, so that they can learn something and play a certain deterrent effect, so that the master Be gentle in your movements when preparing, and don't dare to be too violent.

In short, according to Liu Zhihua's experience, car owners can be less fooled, less deceived, and less wasted money if they are ready for maintenance.

……

Liu Zhihua and Lin Yuan chatted and worked, and quickly cleaned up the wheels, tires and paint, but Liu Zhihua did not continue to repair the interior, but bent down and stared at the broken paint that Lin Yuan found.

"Manager Liu, how do you do it? Is it sheet metal painting?" Lin Yuan didn't have the knowledge to deal with such a situation in the basic used car maintenance and maintenance skills he got. Lin Yuan was very curious about how Liu Zhihua dealt with the broken paint.

After Liu Zhihua got up, he smiled: "Why such a big battle? Just polish it."

"Just do a polish? It's so simple?" Lin Yuan was very puzzled. Originally, Lin Yuan thought that to deal with the broken paint, he needed sheet metal and then painted it. Who would have thought that Liu Zhihua's method seemed so simple, "How is the effect? "

"Of course the effect is good." Liu Zhihua whispered, "Let me tell you, bird droppings, shellac, ultraviolet rays, acid rain and the like will oxidize and corrode the paint surface, and the paint will also age naturally.

The car has been used for a long time, which will cause the car paint to oxidize, lose brightness, and lose luster. Under the sun, you can see sun patterns on the car paint surface. At this time, if you do a polish, it will not look so good The new paint surface will become bright and even achieve a mirror effect.

In addition, polishing can not only remove oxidation, but also restore the car's luster. If the scratches on the car are not serious, just a little, like this relatively shallow scratches, polishing and repairing can be done, even if it can't be completely thrown away, it can also be repaired. It's not as obvious as it used to be. "

"Oh, it turns out that the polishing effect is so great, and it can also repair simple scratches on the paint surface." No wonder Liu Zhihua said that repairing the broken paint is very simple and does not cost much, so it is not as easy to deal with some small scratches as imagined. Trouble, but Lin Yuan has a doubt, "Simple scratches can be polished, but what about more serious ones?"

"If it is more serious, using a paint touch-up pen can also play an anti-rust effect, but the finished touch-up paint produced according to the formula will also have color differences due to batches, production lines, long-term exposure and other reasons.

In addition, more and more high-brilliance and high-transparency colors are appearing on the market, and color matching is also relatively difficult. There may not be such touch-up paint pens.

Therefore, if the scratches are deep, use a touch-up paint pen to cover it. It does not mean that it is completely impossible, but you must be able to see the traces of using the touch-up paint pen, and there must be color difference.

If you are looking for an aesthetic effect, you can only disassemble this part and spray paint the entire surface. "

Lin Yuan nodded, another question popped up in his mind.

Lin Yuan knows that polishing is to use polishing paste and a polishing machine to polish the paint surface of the car body, just like taking a bath in a bathhouse, and the scrubber rubs mud for himself.

The difference is that if the bath master bruises the skin, the skin can repair itself, let alone the bruise, even if it is polished again and again, the thickness of the varnish will definitely become thinner.

What should we do at this time?

"Your concerns are right. Frequent polishing will indeed damage the car paint." As Lin Yuan worried, Liu Zhihua said that polishing is to use abrasives to grind away the damaged paint surface and fill in the fine scratches, so as to obtain Mirror effect, restore the smooth and bright paint surface, achieve the effect of repairing car paint.

The paint surface has a certain thickness. The actual application thickness of the varnish layer ranges from 20 to 60mm, and one polishing can reduce about 1mm.

Every time you polish, the paint will become thinner and will not recover by itself. If you polish too many times, the varnish will indeed become thinner, and the self-protection ability of the paint will become worse and worse.

Therefore, polishing can only be used in emergency, and it cannot solve the fundamental problem of car paint oxidation and lack of brightness.

Regular beauty shops generally do not introduce polishing easily, unless the car paint has reached the point where it has to be repaired.

Like sun patterns and the like, or there are several obvious, relatively shallow scratches on the car body, in this case, it is perfectly fine to do a polishing repair once in a while.

But the paint surface is just a little dull, and the car paint has no obvious scratches, so there is no need to polish it at this time.

If you want to brighten the car and protect the paint surface, there are actually better ways, that is, waxing, sealing glaze, crystal plating, coating, and car covering.

Because polishing is just a simple and rough removal of a layer of paint, the primer will be thrown off after throwing it away, not to mention damage to the car paint, and it will not be able to form a protective film on the paint surface, and the car paint will still be oxidized and corroded after a period of time.

Waxing, glaze sealing, crystal plating, coating, and car covering are equivalent to the protection measures for the paint surface, which can keep the cleaned paint surface in a relatively perfect state, and have good protection measures for the paint surface.

"Waxing, glaze sealing, crystal plating, coating, car covering?" Lin Yuan was very curious, which of these projects has the best effect?Which is the most cost-effective?Which has the best durability?Are there any pitfalls among these?

"Let me tell you something." Liu Zhihua pointed to the paint surface of this Lexus LM, and introduced: Waxing, glaze sealing, crystal plating, film coating, and car covering can not only improve the brightness of the car paint, but also protect the surface of the paint. The method of forming a protective film on the surface.

Waxing is one of the more common car beauty and maintenance items. Applying wax to the car body is as shiny as oil, and the effect is not bad. It can polish small scratches by grinding, and it is also the cheapest. Ordinary waxing costs [-] to [-] yuan, and the most expensive is only a few hundred.

But although waxing is cheap, its maintenance time is short, depending on the condition of the car and the environment, the maintenance time is about half a month to a month.

And be careful not to get the wax on the plastic parts next to it. At this time, the black plastic parts will turn white, which will affect the appearance.

There are two types of waxing, direct waxing and polishing waxing.

Direct waxing is to wash the car clean, just apply the wax directly, and it is generally not very expensive, 50 to 100 yuan.

Because there are no extra procedures, it will not damage the car paint at all. If you go to see a client today and your girlfriend tomorrow, you can call when the car is looking good. Basically, as long as you have enough money, it doesn’t matter if you call once a day. of.

Direct waxing is ok, but not as stunning as polished waxing, and it doesn't handle scratches and such.

Polishing and waxing, as the name suggests, is to first use a polishing machine to remove a layer of paint, and then wax.

In order to enhance the effect and make customers feel that the money is well spent, some car beauty shops will give you polishing first and then waxing.

Because there is an additional polishing procedure, the effect is of course better, much better than direct waxing.

But if the car paint is relatively thin, it is easy to have uneven color, and the color of the paint surface even has a certain change. If it is uneven, it is really ugly.

Therefore, if the car does not have particularly serious scratches, or bird droppings have been on it for a long time, and the car paint has been corroded, do not choose polishing and waxing, but choose cheap ones that do not damage the car paint. Just wax it.

"There are also many pits for waxing, and it is easy to be deceived." Liu Zhihua took out a small can from his bag, opened it, pointed it to Lin Yuan, and told him that car waxes include bright wax, protective wax, antistatic wax, mirror wax, etc. Wait, there are many, many types.

Decontamination wax to remove stains, bright wax to brighten, protective wax to protect car paint, isolate ultraviolet rays, mirror wax to waterproof and prevent rust, and antistatic wax to remove static electricity from cars.

There are many types of waxes with different functions and prices.

The usual method is to shoddy, ordinary wax pretends to be high-grade wax, and it is not easy to see.

However, car wax is a petroleum extract, a water-soluble substance. If the car runs outside in the sun and rain, the car wax with poor quality may be easily lost. Not to mention the effect it should have, it will cost more Wrong money.
