HOW TO WAX YOUR CAR – BEGINNERS GUIDE TO WAXING

In one of the previous articles, we talked in detail about waxing. If you can recall, waxing is paint protection service which offers security against paint damage. Without waxing or any other paint protection service, the paint is susceptible to damage like water spots, fading, swirl marks, and scratches.

If such abnormalities are visible on the vehicle’s exterior, any potential buyer would be put off by it. Suppose you do not plan on selling the car. In that case, an unattractive looking exterior can dent the owner’s confidence and invite unwanted looks from passersby and other automobile owners. After all, why shouldn’t they gawk at your car with contempt?

A vehicle is a reflection of the owner’s personality. If it is dirty and has a poor-quality paint job, people will think poorly of the owner. No one wants that, and it is why car owners must pay attention to their car’s physical appearance. They must opt for regular car detailing services and commit to periodic maintenance.

Speaking of paint protection, we all know how good waxing is for this purpose. Although we did mention how to wax your car in the previous blog post, we have received numerous messages from our readers. What are they saying? Well, they want a dedicated article which covers how to wax a car properly.

So, let’s start. But first, let us discuss the dos and don’ts of waxing.

DOS AND DON’TS OF CAR WAXING

  • Do not park the vehicle under direct sunlight while waxing the car. Instead, opt for a place that offers plenty of shade.
  • Ensure that the car has been thoroughly washed and dried off before starting the wax application process.
  • Do not use substandard waxing products as it can do more harm than good.
  • Use a clay bar to remove any dirt or contaminants that are present on the vehicle even after a detailed wash.
  • While applying the wax, it is common for it to escape into hard-to-reach places. Use a brush to remove the wax as it can be difficult to remove once it is completely dry.
  • Apply an even coat of wax throughout the exterior. If one place has too much wax, it fades and ages differently than the other parts. It can be damaging for the vehicle’s paint and appearance.
  • Do not wax while it is raining as rain moisture can ruin the wax, preventing it from sticking onto the automobile.

Now, let’s come back to the main topic.

WAXING – STEP BY STEP GUIDE

  • Buy a high-quality wax product and a waxing pad. You can opt for a microfiber cloth instead of a pad too. Do not compromise on quality in favour of the money. A substandard product might end up doing more harm to the paint.
  • Wash the car thoroughly. Ensure that there is no mud or any other type of dirt left on it.
  • Dry it off thoroughly using a clean cloth.
  • There are different types of wax, as discussed in the previous blog post. Read the instructions on the product carefully as each wax comes with a different set of instructions. Once done, move to the next step.
  • Apply the wax onto the pad/cloth. Please do not use too much wax as it can be tough to remove later.
  • Select the area from where you want to start the waxing process.
  • Start applying the wax in a small, circular motion.
  • Repeat the previous step until the entire car has been waxed.
  • Wait for the wax to dry.
  • Once dry, use a clean cloth to remove the wax.

That’s it! Your car has been successfully waxed, and you can witness that the shine has significantly improved.
