How often should a car be waxed?

[ArthurRose]

Car waxing should be done every 3 to 4 months. Here are the specific details about car waxing: 1. The most common paint maintenance for cars is polishing and waxing. Polishing removes the oxidized layer on the paint surface, making the car noticeably brighter. After waxing, the amount of water droplets adhering to the car body can be reduced by 50% to 90%, protecting the paint and helping to prevent dust and high temperatures. 2. New cars do not need polishing. The surface of a new car does not oxidize immediately, and polishing may damage the paint, having the opposite effect. For new car maintenance, simply wash the car thoroughly and apply wax directly without polishing. 3. The durability of paint waxing is relatively short, usually lasting about 2 months. For cars older than one year with severe oxidation or noticeable scratches, it is recommended to polish first before waxing to remove the oxidized layer and maintain the paint's shine.
