Does a Car Need Waxing? Is Waxing Good?
1 Answers
Introduction to the Pros and Cons of Car Waxing: I. Pros: 1. Polishing Effect: Polishing is the most basic function of car wax. After waxing, the vehicle's surface brightness can be improved, restoring the body's original luster. 2. Waterproof and Acid Rain Protection: Due to the protection of car wax, the amount of water droplets adhering to the car body is significantly reduced. 3. Heat Resistance: Cars are exposed to high temperatures and sunlight year-round, which can cause the paint to age and fade. The film formed by waxing effectively reflects light, preventing incident light from aging and fading the paint or base coat. 4. Anti-Static Effect: Static electricity in cars comes from interior fabric and friction between airborne dust and the car body during driving. Static electricity often causes many inconveniences. Car wax effectively blocks dust from the car body, reducing static electricity generation. 5. UV Protection: The UV protection effect of car wax works in parallel with its heat resistance. Due to the nature of UV light, it easily refracts into the paint surface. UV-protective car wax takes this characteristic into full consideration, minimizing damage to the car's surface. 6. Polishing and Buffing Effect: When shallow scratches appear on the paint surface, polishing wax can be used without harming the paint. II. Cons: 1. Product Damage: There are many types of car waxes on the market with varying performance, effects, and results. Improper selection or use of low-quality wax can damage the car paint. 2. Paint Surface Wear: Due to the polishing effect, improper operation or repeated polishing can easily wear the paint surface. 3. Dirt Adhesion: Under high temperatures and prolonged engine operation, the wax can melt and easily adhere to dust and stains.
