How to Choose Car Wax?
1 Answers
Generally, dark-colored car paint should use black, red, or green series, while light-colored car paint should use silver, white, or pearl series. More expensive doesn't necessarily mean better; choose the brand according to the instructions, and once selected, avoid changing the model. When a car moves, it generates static electricity due to friction with the air, and car wax can effectively block the friction between the car body and air or dust. Less static means less dust adhesion, and car wax also provides a polishing effect, making the car look newer and more attractive. For new cars, it's best to wait 1-2 months before waxing. Below are related details: 1. Waxing Duration: New cars come with a factory-applied wax layer, so there's no need to wax immediately, as it would be wasteful and ineffective. However, since wax protection is short-lived, it typically lasts only 1-2 months, and even shorter in rainy weather. 2. Waxing Timing: Consider waxing when the car body feels rough or shows imperfections. For non-metallic paint on new cars, wax every 3 months; for metallic paint, wax every 6 months. 3. Benefits of Waxing: Waxing is a traditional car care practice that applies a protective layer to the car body. Its primary benefits include waterproofing and acid rain protection, as wax reduces water droplet adhesion. It also protects against high temperatures and UV rays—prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause paint fading and aging, but the wax film reflects some light, preventing paint damage. Additionally, waxing reduces static and dust accumulation.
