The sun is crucial for our survival. It provides energy to sustain the planet’s plant life, shines down rays to keep us warm, and gives us light to see. Despite how wondrous the sun is, it also can be dangerous and cause skin cancer and sunburns. Just like the sun can damage our skin, the sun can also damage our car’s paint. The sun’s ultraviolet rays are what we must pay special attention to.

The sun produces different types of ultraviolet radiation, with two of these types, ultraviolet A radiation and ultraviolet B radiation, being of particular importance when it comes to your vehicle’s paint job. Ultraviolet A radiation has a longer wavelength and is the type of UV radiation that is responsible for skin aging. This wavelength of UV radiation can break down components of your paint and dry it out. This results in cracking and chipping.
