Does Car Polishing and Waxing Affect the Vehicle?

[McEmmett]

Polishing and waxing have some impact on the car paint, including effects on oxidation resistance, susceptibility to wear, and low heat resistance. However, car polishing also has benefits, as it enhances the glossy appearance of the paint. Here is an introduction to car polishing and waxing: 1. Car polishing is a step in the car beautification process, performed before waxing, sealing, or coating. Without polishing, the car paint may not be smooth. 2. Polishing is a method of car paint care used to remove oxidized paint and various contaminants from the car body, eliminate fine scratches, and address minor paint damage and stains. 3. After 3 or 4 years of exposure to wind, rain, and sunlight, the paint on a car inevitably becomes dull. Polishing can quickly restore the paint to a like-new, vibrant appearance. Therefore, polishing is often an essential step in paint care processes such as waxing, sealing, and coating, but it should not be done excessively.
