Does the steam car wash damage the paint?

“Does the steam car wash with litter water and high temperature hurt the paint?”Presumably every owner who wants to try a steam car wash has considered this issue.

The steam car wash, as its name implies, turns the water into steam by heating, and the steam that spurts quickly condenses into water on the surface of the car body, and then quickly flushes the dirt through steam pressure.

Steam can be sterilized, decontaminated, and has a strong physical property of thermal drop, which can quickly dissolve the adhesion properties of sediment and stains. The dirt is softened by heat and can be easily removed under pressure steam injection.

The temperature of the low-temperature steam injected by the steam car washer is 50 degrees Celsius, and the steam pressure reaches 220-260 meters/second, sweeping the body of contaminants adhering to the paint surface.

The steam used for car wash is low-temperature steam, which does not exceed the limit temperature of car paint and rubber heating. The car paint temperature is baked through the baking room at a high temperature of 170 degrees. As long as it does not exceed this temperature, the paint and rubber parts of the car are absolute. No harm will be done.

The steam temperature at the steam gun steamer outlet is 100-120 degrees Celsius, but during the car wash, the spray gun mouth is 8-10 centimeters away from the body. After the steam is ejected 10 centimeters from the outlet, the temperature will dissipate. In part, the steam temperature at this time is only about 50 degrees, and it can be touched directly by the staff, so it will not hurt the paint at all.

In summer, especially in black cars, under the sun, the surface temperature of car paint reaches 60 degrees. It’s okay. The steam car wash is only 50 degrees and it is too late to hurt the car paint, and the steam will decompose the car body. Sludge on the surface makes it rinse quickly.

As for why the steam car wash sprays hot water, we can know from the experience of life that the effect of using cold water and hot water in the laundry is very different. Hot water can dissolve the stains on the clothes more easily. The same is true for car washing.
