How Long Does Car Wax Last?
1 Answers
Car wax typically lasts for about three months. Frequent exposure to sunlight can cause oxidation on the car's paint surface, and waxing helps protect the paint. Many car owners also opt for a clear paint protection film (PPF) after purchasing a new car. This film is essentially a transparent layer applied to the car's surface to safeguard the paint. Here are the benefits of car waxing: 1. Water and acid rain resistance. The protective layer of wax significantly reduces water droplet adhesion on the car's surface, with an effectiveness ranging from 50% to 90%. 2. Protection against high temperatures and UV rays. Cars that are frequently driven or parked outdoors are prone to paint fading and aging due to prolonged exposure to sunlight. The wax film reflects some of the light, effectively preventing paint deterioration.
