When buying a car from a reseller, it is impossible to find out the real state of affairs: he will never talk about serious problems, showing only small “styles” to distract the eyes. By the way, about the eyes: you can’t cheat on them! If the car visually looks good, you want to buy it right away. And here lies the biggest misconception. Details are on the AvtoVzglyad portal.
We choose with our eyes and meet by clothes – these rules have become axioms, because they are the absolute truth. Whatever problems are hidden inside, the attractive appearance of the car will smooth them out. Everyone knows that the condition of the body is the “measuring cup” of the whole car. Simply put, a well-maintained car cannot break down a day after purchase. And let’s face it, in any car the body is the most important. The “grey market workers” know that too. And not only do they know it, they use it regularly.
If you buy a shabby car for a penny, the switchboard won’t bother to fix the suspension and engine, handle the box and replace the muffler. He will invest in the body, and not to treat the cause, but to camouflage the effects. Moreover, this is done in the cheapest and easiest way, often in the garage.
Is it reasonable to say that covering chips and rust makes it impossible to achieve an attractive appearance of the car as a whole? Logical, understandable, but no longer relevant. Simply because every experienced reseller knows an inexpensive method to cure all diseases: express painting.
But the trick lies in the fact that the car, which has been minimally processed – read, planed with sandpaper and sometimes just degreased – is covered with varnish from top to bottom. The cheapest of course. But before pouring the composition into the spray gun, a little car-colored paint is added to it. After being thoroughly mixed, the car is covered with “lacquer varnish” and then only superficially polished. The “cocktail” fills all superficial scratches and flakes, covers rust and turns the “loose” into a “horse”. cunning?
The method has only one drawback: due to poor preparation and poor quality of the materials, it will not last long. After a month or two, the varnish begins to crumble into pieces, revealing the true state of affairs to the owner. At the slightest attempt at polishing, the coating flies around, turning the carriage back into a pumpkin. The only way out is full preparation and full painting. And it is expensive, to say the least.
Evening inspection and the speed of decision making do not allow you to reveal the fraud at the time of purchase. The only way to recognize the “setup”: door handles. Of course, no one will remove them, so if you click and look closely, you can see the surface layer of varnish. Another trick is a careful study of the dowry. The reseller often sells many cars at once, so he just puts all the leftovers in the trunk. There you will find the same pot of paint, already mixed with varnish, that was left after the marafet was set. If there is one in the trunk, get ready, you have a future “pumpkin” in front of you.
