Can Waxing Prevent Rust?

[ElliotRose]

Waxing can prevent rust. Reasons why it can prevent rust: Waxing doesn't have much effect on dust prevention, but it does help prevent rust. After waxing, water is less likely to adhere to the car paint, effectively preventing the vehicle from rusting. When to wax: Cars from the factory are sprayed with a layer of anti-rust wax upon leaving the production line, but the main application is on the seams, especially the hinges of car doors. Since hinges cannot be painted, they are prone to rusting from the inside out. Moreover, after a period of time, the wax gradually wears off. At this point, car owners can also spray anti-rust wax on the seams for rust prevention, which is very effective.
