    Benefits: First, protect the paint surface.

    Second, it is brilliant.

    Third, it is easy to clean.

    Disadvantages: car wax itself is a soft substance, easy to lose, in addition, because any car wax contains silicon components, after a long time of ultraviolet radiation will rust the car paint, leaving a little black spots, especially the abrasive particles in the car wax will form a vortex hair scratch on the bright paint surface, just after waxing, these scratches can be temporarily covered by wax, but the wax will be lost due to temperature changes and car washing, showing the paint surface full of scratches, so you have to continue waxing until polishing. The damage to the transparent paint layer is greater, and generally after 3 polishes, the transparent paint layer will be removed, thereby accelerating the aging of the car.

    Waxing can be divided into two types: manual waxing and mechanical waxing.

    Manual waxing is simple and easy, and mechanical waxing is efficient.

    Whether waxed by hand or mechanically, it is important to ensure that the paint is evenly applied. When waxing by hand, first apply an appropriate amount of wax on the sponge, and then apply it in a circular circle in a certain order, and each application should have a degree of overlap with the upper coating area of 1 5-1 4 to prevent missing coating and ensure uniform application. When applying wax mechanically, the car wax is applied to the sponge of the waxing machine, and the specific application process is similar to that of manual waxing.

    It is important to note that the application of edges, corners and edges should not go beyond the lacquer surface, and it is easier to grasp the manual application in this regard.

    Is it necessary to wax the car? There is no need to wax the car, the details are as follows:,1

    Try not to wax the car, and now the car wax contains synthetic wax. ,2.Synthetic wax is extracted from petroleum, and after waxing, it looks bright at the time, but in the long run, it will be found to be dirty again.

    3.Petroleum products will oxidize for a long time, forming an oxide layer on the surface of the car paint that is difficult to remove. The benefits of car waxing are as follows:

    1.Car waxing is a traditional item of car beauty, the role of waxing is first of all waterproof, acid rain, due to the protection of car wax, the amount of water droplets attached to the body will be reduced. ,2.

    The second is to prevent high temperature and ultraviolet rays, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and it is easy for the car to be driven or stored outside all year round due to the aging and fading of the car paint due to light. ,3.The film formed by waxing can reflect part of the light, effectively avoiding the aging of the car paint.

    1) Waterproofing.

    The car is often exposed to the air, inevitably exposed to wind and rain, when the water droplets remain on the surface of the body, in the weather clear, under the strong sunlight, each small water droplet is a convex lens, under its focusing, the temperature at the focal point reaches 800-1000, resulting in dark spots on the paint surface, which greatly affects the quality and service life of the paint surface. In addition, water droplets tend to rust the exposed metal surface.

    2) High temperature resistance.

    The principle of high temperature resistance of car wax is to effectively reflect the incident light from different directions, and prevent the incident light from aging and discoloring the paint surface or base coat.

    3) Anti-static effect.

    There are two main types of static electricity in automobiles, one is the friction of fiber fabrics, such as carpets, seats, clothing, etc.; On the other hand, it is caused by the friction between the dust in the air and the metal surface of the body during the driving of the car. Car Waxing Care**Introduction[1]Static electricity generated no matter what the cause is, it will cause a lot of inconvenience to the occupants and even cause injury. The anti-static effect of car wax is mainly reflected in the static prevention of the car surface, and its principle of action is to isolate the friction between dust and the metal of the car surface.

    Due to the thickness of the wax layer and the adhesion ability of the wax itself, car waxing is a kind of car beauty, the main role is waterproof, acid rain, high temperature and ultraviolet rays, anti-static, dust-proof, etc. [2] Its anti-static effect has a certain difference, and the general anti-static car wax is better than ordinary car wax in terms of the ability to block the friction between dust and paint.

    4) Anti-ultraviolet effect.

    In fact, the anti-ultraviolet effect of the car wax is parallel to its anti-high temperature effect, but in the daylight, due to the characteristics of ultraviolet rays, ultraviolet light is easier to refract into the paint, the anti-ultraviolet car wax fully considers the characteristics of ultraviolet rays, so that its infringement on the car surface can be minimized.

    5) Glazing.

    Varnishing is the most basic function of car wax, after waxing the vehicle, can improve the brightness of its surface, so that the body to restore the bright color.

    6) Grinding and polishing effect.

    When there are shallow scratches on the paint surface, you can use abrasive polishing wax.

    Hello, car waxing is necessary to prevent paint surface from curing.

  7. Anonymous users2024-02-01

    It's useful, but it depends on whether you usually want to maintain it, if you haven't maintained it for a few months, your waxing will not have a great effect, if you insist on waxing once or twice a month, then ensure that the car is basically similar to the new car, the best effect is to coat or plate.

    Not good. What are the disadvantages of waxing the car many times: too many times of waxing, easy to wear the paint.

    The shortcomings of the existing paint maintenance methods are:

    1. Easy to oxidize.

    As a traditional means of paint surface maintenance, waxing and glaze sealing can play a role in protecting the paint surface within a certain period of time, but there are shortcomings such as short maintenance period and non-lasting effect. This is mainly because they use petroleum as a solvent, so they are prone to oxidation and form an "oxidative resonance" with the car paint. Generally speaking, the wax begins to oxidize in half a month and is completely oxidized after a month; The glaze begins to oxidize in two months, and completely oxidizes after six months.

    After oxidation of wax and glaze, instead of protecting the paint for a long time, it will strongly corrode the paint.

    2. Easy to wear paint surface.

    Generally, wax contains abrasive particles, and the brightness of the paint is actually made by grinding the particles that cannot be seen by the naked eye. Because our waxing technique is usually polished in a circle, the car that is often waxed will have a thin track in a circle. The vibrating and polishing machine used in the glaze sealing construction has strong high-frequency vibration, which will destroy the molecular structure of the paint surface and make the paint surface more fragile.

    3. It is not resistant to high temperatures.

    Due to the dual effects of sunlight and engine operation, the temperature of the paint surface is very high. In summer, the surface temperature of the hood can be close to the "boiling point", even in winter it can reach more than 30 degrees, and at such high temperatures, the wax is very easy to melt and lose, and the melted wax will adhere to more dirt and further damage the paint surface. The car glaze will also accelerate oxidation under the action of high temperature.

    4. It is not resistant to cleaning.

    Wax is soluble in water, so if the car has just finished waxing and encounters rainy weather, the wax will be dissolved by the rain, and it will not play a role in protecting the paint and beauty. At the same time, because the wax is soluble in water, washing the car after waxing also causes a lot of inconvenience. Although the glaze is insoluble in water, it penetrates the coating into the car body and no longer provides any protection like wax.

    Car paint waxing is good:

    1. Glazing: Varnishing is the most basic function of car wax, and the waxed vehicle can improve the brightness of its surface and restore the body to its bright nature;

    2. Waterproof: The car is often exposed to the air, inevitably exposed to wind and rain, when the water droplets remain on the surface of the body, in the weather, under the strong sunlight, each small water droplet is a convex lens, under its focusing, the temperature at the focus reaches 8001000, resulting in dark spots on the paint surface, which greatly affects the quality and service life of the paint surface. In addition, water droplets tend to rust the exposed metal surface.

    High-grade car wax can reduce the adhesion of water droplets by more than 90, which greatly reduces the possibility of erosion of the body and protects the paint surface to the greatest extent;

    3. High temperature resistance: The anti-high temperature principle of car wax is to effectively reflect the incident light from different directions to prevent the incident light from aging and discoloring the topcoat or primer;

    4. Anti-ultraviolet rays: In fact, the effect of the car wax from ultraviolet rays is parallel to its anti-high temperature effect, but in the daylight, due to the characteristics of ultraviolet rays, it is easier to refract ultraviolet light into the paint surface, and the anti-ultraviolet car wax fully considers the characteristics of ultraviolet rays, so that its infringement on the car surface can be minimized.

    2. Select the wax according to the driving environment of the car and the newness of the vehicle;

    3. Frequent waxing can not be carried out, car waxing can improve the brightness of the car paint, but frequent waxing will have the opposite effect.

    I'm a car engaged in car sheet metal painting, I'll come to you. Waxing has great benefits for the car, can play a good role in protecting the paint surface, can resist oxidation, fight ultraviolet rays, resist minor scratches, etc.! Especially in summer, strong ultraviolet rays are most likely to damage the paint surface, and waxing can protect the paint surface well!

    But I don't know what kind of waxing you are talking about, if it is the car decoration to introduce you, directly rub it on it with your hands, this kind of is not good, it does not have much effect on the car, it feels very effective just after wiping, it looks very bright, but as long as you wash the car a few times, it will be completely washed. Normal car waxing is to first use coarse wax to remove the oxide layer of the paint, and then wash the car, and then apply fine wax, seal the glaze, and remove the traces left by the last few steps, these cars should be done to ensure that they can not touch the water for about 24 hours, otherwise the effect will be affected. After playing the car, it will be very bright and smooth to the touch, and the wax can generally be maintained for about 3 months.

    There are benefits, waxing is not for the sake of brightness. Waxing can reduce the corrosion of rainwater on the car paint and reduce the fading and aging of the car paint. It is said that mitigation is not prevention.

    Car waxing is not only for the sake of making the surface of the car brighter, of course, no one will refuse to look like new. Waxing also has a more discreet effect, preventing damage to the paint caused by rain, dust and UV rays. It is a very important step in the selection of car wax, the quality of car wax not only affects the quality of the effect, on the contrary, inferior car wax may also damage the car paint.

    There are many brands and styles of automotive waxes, including solid and liquid, high-end and mid-range, as well as domestic and imported options. Because the role of various brands of car wax is different, it is not possible to simply say "which brand of car wax is better". The choice of car wax needs to be considered comprehensively.

    Of course, when you don't have a deep understanding of car wax, it is still a good choice to buy a relatively large brand of car wax.

    In order to ensure the waxing effect, the vehicle must be thoroughly cleaned before waxing to avoid paint on the car. Dirty scratches the car paint. First of all, apply an appropriate amount of car wax to the sponge (special waxing sponge), and then apply it in a straight line in a certain order, and each application should have a degree of overlap with the upper application area of 1 5-1 4 to prevent missing coating and ensure uniform application.

    Circular motion is not suitable and can cause halos on the paint. After the wax film has dried (15 to 20 minutes), wipe with a car servant microfiber towel.

    When waxing, the car should be waxed in a cool place, otherwise the temperature of the car surface is high, and the adhesion ability of the car wax will decrease, which will affect the waxing effect. The waxing environment is clean, there is good ventilation, and a special waxing workshop can be set up if possible. When waxing, the running route of the manual sponge and the sponge of the waxing machine should be straight and reciprocating, and it is not suitable to be applied in an annular shape to prevent strong annular diffusion caused by uneven coating.

    1.To prevent high temperature and ultraviolet rays, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and it is easy for the car paint to age and fade due to light when driving or storing it all year round, and the film formed by waxing can reflect part of the light and effectively avoid the aging of the car paint.

    2.As a traditional project of car beauty, the role of waxing is first of all waterproof, anti-acid rain, due to the protection of car wax, the amount of water droplets attached to the body will be reduced, the effect is very obvious, can reach 50% to 90%.

    3.Car wax is anti-static and of course dust-proof. The friction between the car and the air generates static electricity when driving, and the car wax can effectively isolate the friction between the car body and the air and dust. Reduced electrostatic cars naturally reduce dust adsorption.

    4.Car wax can also play a role in glazing, making the car look newer and better.

    The benefits of waxing are obvious:

    1. Waterproof effect, reduce paint watermark dark spots, rust and damage.

    2. Anti-aging effect, reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays to the paint surface and prolong the life of the paint.

    3. Appreciate the light, improve the paint finish to different degrees, and make the body color brighter.

    4. Anti-static effect, reduce the damage to the car paint caused by friction with dust, wool fabrics, chemical fibers, etc. in the air.

    5. Anti-corrosion effect, effectively isolate the damage of acid rain and acid mist to car paint.

    However, there are also many things to pay attention to when waxing.

    The disadvantages of waxing are also obvious:

    1. Poor antioxidant capacity, basically one waxing can only effectively protect the paint for 15-30 days;

    2. Not water-resistant, when it rains or washes the car, your wax will be blind;

    3. Waxing is divided into manual waxing and machine waxing, manual waxing will not have any impact on the car paint, but it is time-consuming and laborious and the effect is not significant; The effect of machine waxing (polishing and waxing) is immediate, but the damage to the car paint is not generally large, the car paint is so thick when it leaves the factory, and if the polishing method is not right, the car paint will be thrown one less layer, and it may cause local color difference;

    4. It is not resistant to high temperatures, and the melting of car wax in summer may also stick to the dust in the air, thereby harming the car paint.

    Therefore, whether the vehicle needs to be waxed or not, you can judge for yourself, I personally think that waxing is still necessary, and pay attention to choosing the right car wax, and use the appropriate waxing method, I am more reluctant to polish waxing, my car is generally washed once a month, waxed every 2 months, and the use of regular brand general protective wax can be (not the more expensive the better), if you have time, choose to wax by hand, and try not to polish without paint damage.
