How Long Does a Car Polishing and Waxing Last?
1 Answers
Car polishing and waxing can typically last from 3 to 6 months. Both polishing and waxing help maintain the car's appearance and repair minor scratches. Very light scratches, such as hairline scratches, can be removed by waxing. For more severe scratches, polishing is required to eliminate them. Benefits of car waxing: Gloss enhancement: Enhancing gloss is the most basic function of car wax. Waxing improves the shine of the car's surface, restoring its original luster. Water and acid rain resistance: The protective layer of wax significantly reduces water droplet adhesion on the car's surface. Heat resistance: Cars exposed to high temperatures and sunlight for extended periods can experience paint aging and fading. The film formed by waxing effectively reflects light, preventing paint or base coat from aging and fading due to light exposure. Anti-static effect: Static electricity in cars is generated by friction between interior fabric and airborne dust during driving. Static electricity often causes inconveniences, but car wax effectively blocks dust from the car's surface, reducing static electricity. Benefits of polishing: Polishing is a consumable repair method that can fix minor scratches. By rotating the polishing pad, it grinds away the oxidized layer, scratches, and stains on the car's paint, restoring a smooth and glossy finish. A small amount of polishing is harmless and can be tolerated by the car's paint.
