How often should a new car be waxed?

[MacSerenity]

For a new car, it is advisable to wax it every two to three months. It is best to wax the car once before the rainy season and once before winter. The advantages and disadvantages of car waxing are as follows: Advantages of waxing: Protection against high temperatures. Car wax can reflect incoming light from different directions, preventing it from penetrating the clear coat. This helps to delay the aging and discoloration of the base paint, thereby extending the lifespan of the paint and preventing fading. Protection against UV rays. Similar to protection against high temperatures, UV rays from sunlight can damage the car's paint. Car wax can significantly reduce the harm caused by UV rays to the paint. Disadvantages of waxing: Prone to oxidation. Car wax uses petroleum as a solvent, making it highly susceptible to oxidation. It typically begins to oxidize after about half a month and fully oxidizes within a month, thus failing to provide long-term protection for the paint. Potential paint wear. If the waxing is performed by an unskilled technician, it can easily result in fine circular scratches on the car's surface.
