Bitumen stains removal Helsinki

Professional bitumen stains removal in Helsinki – safe and effective treatment for car paint surface

Cars moving on Helsinki roads are exposed to bitumen and asphalt residues especially in spring, summer and autumn when road works are done widely and asphalt surface is warm. Bitumen sticks very tightly to car paint surface, sills, wheel arch edges and door lower edges, and removing it without right agents can damage surface. Professionally performed bitumen stains removal in Helsinki safely removes sticky, dark and ingrained bitumen residues without risk of scratches or paint surface dulling.

Service suits all car models – family cars, electric cars, vans, premium models and vehicles that are exposed daily to bitumen splashes from commutes or highway traffic.

In Helsinki there is lot of traffic and continuous road work contracts where fresh asphalt is used. In warm season, bitumen softens and sticks, lifted by tires, to car sides and sills. Also rains and humidity soften asphalt surface, so bitumen splashes stick even easier.

Bitumen is not ordinary dirt – it is oil-based, sticky and adhesive substance that:

– hardens quickly in cold
– can stick into paint surface pores
– absorbs dirt and dust into itself
– is especially prominent in light cars
– reacts with wrong cleaning agents

Therefore bitumen stains require correct chemical treatment and do not come off safely with mere washing.

Bitumen removal is always done with special agents intended to dissolve bitumen and oil-based impurities without paint surface being damaged. As professionals, we choose agent based on car paint, lacquer and possible protective coatings.

Process starts with car washing so loose dirt and dust are removed before chemical treatment. This prevents scratches formation. Next we apply bitumen removal agent precisely to spots where bitumen is visible: sills, arches, door lower edges, rear bumper corners and side panels. Agent dissolves bitumen controllably, so it comes off without strong mechanical rubbing.

When bitumen has dissolved, it is gently wiped off with microfiber towel and rinsed off so agent does not remain on surface. If needed, process is repeated several times until surface is completely clean. Finally area is treated with light protection or wax so surface does not remain bare.

Many try to remove bitumen DIY using:

– too strong solvents
– gasoline or thinner
– rough wash sponges
– strong mechanical rubbing

These can irreversibly damage paint surface, including:

– dull lacquer
– remove wax or protective coating
– cause scratches
– leave polished spots
– damage plastic parts

Professional treatment prevents these risks and preserves car paint surface original condition.

Electric cars paint surfaces are often softer than in traditional cars, and their sills and aerodynamic surfaces collect more bitumen. Tesla, Volkswagen ID., Skoda Enyaq and Audi e-tron models sides and rear arches are especially prone to bitumen splashes.

We perform bitumen removal carefully:

– without strong solvents near car sensors
– without high-pressure washing risks to seals
– using soft tools that do not scratch surface

Work is done so that car surface structures and cameras remain completely safe.

Bitumen should be removed as soon as possible, as the longer it is on surface, the deeper it sticks. Especially during fresh asphalt season, bitumen can accumulate already during one drive.

Bitumen removal is timely when:

• dark, sticky spots are visible on car sills
• wheel arches feel rough
• rear bumper lower edge is full of splashes
• after car washing, black dots remain on surface
• car has passed through road construction site

Regular treatment keeps surface even and facilitates future splashes removal.

Bitumen makes car surface uneven and dirty-looking, even when car is otherwise clean. Especially in white and silver cars, dark bitumen stains are very clearly visible. When bitumen is removed correctly, surface restores to smooth and shiny, and car overall appearance improves significantly.

Additionally clean and even paint surface:

– prevents lacquer and paint damage
– preserves car resale value
– makes driving more pleasant
– reduces future washing work needed
