The exterior of the car is the part that is most often covered in dirt. If not cleaned regularly, it can interfere with driving activities. The car windows are one part that will definitely obstruct the view when they are dirty.

Many people choose harsh water to clean it, as harsh water has proven to be effective and quick in removing crust and mold that stick. But, are there any effects that will occur if you clean the car windows with harsh water? If so, what are the effects? Here’s the review!

Effects of Cleaning Car Windows with Harsh Water!

Besides dirt, mold also easily sticks to car windows, especially if the dirt has accumulated. Cleaning car windows that have started to mold and accumulate dirt is quite difficult.

Harsh water often becomes a quick choice for cleaning it. But do you know what the effects of using harsh water to clean car windows are? Here we have prepared the review for you!

Damaging the Car's Protective Layer from Ultraviolet Rays

Harsh water is a chemical that contains a high corrosive solution. When used to clean mold and dirt on car windows, it is indeed very effective and practical. However, over time it will cause detrimental effects.

The surface of car windows has a protective layer that looks like a paint varnish with the function of protecting the car windows from high exposure to ultraviolet rays under the scorching sun. If harsh water is used to clean car windows, that layer will tear and cause the car windows to lose their protective layer.

Very detrimental, right? You who were previously protected from ultraviolet ray exposure while driving in the car will no longer be protected. In fact, exposure to ultraviolet rays is not good for everyone's skin health.

Making Car Windows Hazy

Car windows cleaned with harsh water will indeed look cleaner and clearer without mold and dirt sticking. But, over time the car windows will appear hazy and no longer clear as before.

When car windows are in a hazy state, it is very dangerous for drivers and passengers. How could it not be? Visibility at night and during rainy conditions will be difficult to see clearly.
