    Car care Touching up paintwork Paintwork Paint is an important part of the car’s rustproofing and should therefore be checked regularly. To avoid the onset of rust, damaged paintwork must be rectified immediately. The most common types of paintwork damage are stone chips, scratches, and marks on the edges of wings and doors.

    • Regularly check and touch-up the rustproofing treatment as necessary. The car’s rustproofing does not normally require treatment for approximately 12 years. After that time, it should be treated at three-year intervals. If the car needs further treatment, please contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
