What is the difference between coating and waxing?

Waxing. Waxing is a traditional item in car detailing. Paint waxing is usually done every 1-2 months.

Car waxes are divided into the following types.

1. Solid wax: does not contain water, oily substances, and the common ones on the market are solid waxes.

2. Soft wax: water-based paste, with abrasive ingredients, good decontamination effect.

3. Liquid wax: water-soluble emulsion, which can be used for waterless car washing, and has a good decontamination effect. It is generally used as a water wax for car washing.

The role of waxing:

1. Waxing the car frequently can make it difficult for rainwater to adhere to the surface of the body. so as not to corrode the paint from acid rain.

2. The thin layer formed by waxing can reflect the light and avoid the aging of the paint.

3. Waxing can prevent the generation of static electricity and reduce the adhesion of charged dust to the car.

4. Of course, what you can see directly is the role of glazing, improving the brightness of the paint surface, and the car looks a little newer.

2. It is best to use ordinary pearl color or metallic paint series wax for ordinary vehicles.

3. In summer, it is advisable to use anti-ultraviolet car wax.

4. When the driving environment is poor, the casein wax with outstanding protective effect should be applied.

5. The dark car paint is black, red and green series of car wax.

6. The light-colored car paint is silver, white and pearl series car wax.

Coating. Paint coating technology is the world's first generation of paint protection technology. The real automotive coating should be an inorganic coating, that is, a crystal glass coating that will never oxidize.

Only the inorganic coating is the coating layer covering the surface of the car, which will not be oxidized by external factors such as ultraviolet rays and acid rain and disappear. In general, it is recommended to paint the vehicle every 1 year or so.

The role of coatings.

1. The temperature resistance range is up to 500 3000, and it has the function of anti-ultraviolet rays.

2. The strong hardness is more than 9h (the paint is only about 1 2h).

3. The surface is smooth, the dirt is difficult to adhere, and it is easy to clean daily.

4. It has anti-oxidation properties and protects the paint from oxidation.

5. The performance is durable and stable, and the protection time can reach more than one year.

Types of coatings.

1. Glass cellulose coating: high gloss, anti-oxidation, acid and alkali resistance, and ultraviolet resistance.

2. Inorganic nano coating: the hardness and wear resistance of the film layer are extremely high, and it is very stable and never oxidized.

3. Crystal plating: higher hardness. It can form a strong protective layer in the car paint, so that the car paint is not easy to be scratched.

2. The coating effect can be maintained for about 1 year, during which the post-maintenance of the coating is done regularly, and many businesses have free maintenance services for coated vehicles.

3. After coating, the vehicle must be washed in a regular car wash.

4. After coating, don't do simple paint care such as waxing, which will make the previous coating effect useless.

Or waxing, although car waxing is not the best way to protect the car paint, but waxing costs less, can also play a certain effect, so many car friends still like the way of waxing, waxing once ** is not expensive generally dozens of yuan ordinary car wax, waxing cycle is two or three months a time, the brand turtle brand, 3m wax and other brands are very easy to use, of course, their own waxing is more saving.

What is the difference between crystal plating and waxing?

1. Car waxing mainly has the functions of waterproof, anti-high temperature, anti-static, anti-ultraviolet, glazing and so on. It is best to use color coating wax to protect the gloss and color of the car body, and it is advisable to use anti-ultraviolet wax in summer, and apply casein wax with outstanding protection when the driving environment is poor. Ordinary vehicles can use ordinary pearl or metallic paint series car wax, and high-end cars should choose high-grade car wax, otherwise there will be damage to the car body.

Generally, black, red and green series waxes are used for dark paints, and silver, white and pearl waxes are used for light paints.

2. Automobile coating is the highest measure of paint protection, which can avoid oxidation and achieve multiple effects such as brightening, acid and alkali resistance, oxidation resistance, and ultraviolet resistance. Generally, when coating the car, the paint leather that has become discolored and brittle due to aging and the oxide layer formed by long-term corrosion will be removed at the same time. It can increase the hardness of the paint surface and avoid small scratches and apertures.

It also lasts the longest, about a year or more. Since the material of the membrane itself is an inorganic substance, there is no damage to the car paint.

First, the composition is different:The components of car wax are mainly derived from petroleum, which are polyethylene emulsions or silicone polymer compounds, which belong to oxides, and the coating components are mostly inorganic siliceous, and some are organic substances.

Second, the hardness is differentThe coating surface can form an inorganic glass layer, which is harder than the wax layer.

3. Lasting Difference:The waxing wax layer is an oxide, which is easy to oxidize and can only be maintained for about 1 month, while the coating is inorganic and not easy to oxidize, and can generally be maintained for about half a year.

Fourth, **Different:The coating ** span is relatively large, the cheap one is about 1,000, the expensive one is thousands, and the waxing ** is cheap, generally about 50-100, and it is cheaper to wax yourself, and the car wax for dozens of dollars can be used many times.

Fifth, the construction is different:Waxing is simple to operate and can be done by yourself; The coating has higher technical and environmental requirements for the construction personnel, and the construction time is longer, generally 3-6 hours.

The differences between automotive waxing and coating are: different processes, different materials, different effects and different materials.

First, the process is different

1. The car wax is generally not treated directly with the paint surface, and some of them are beaten after washing the car through some tools in order to achieve a better effect, and a very small number of them are waxed after polishing, and the paint defects are often not treated.

2. The coating is different, it needs to be polished before plating, and the shallow scratches and oxide layers of the paint surface are removed through polishing, so that the paint surface can restore the original luster and improve the mirror effect.

Second, the material is different

1. The main component of car wax is polyethylene emulsion or silicone polymer compound, which belongs to oxide.

Third, the effect is different

1. Car wax is the basic protection of the paint surface, which is easy to decompose when exposed to water, has a short life, has no hardness, and is not wear-resistant, and is generally maintained for about a month.

2. The coating is a maintenance project for the paint surface, which has high temperature resistance, washing resistance, friction resistance, not easy to stain ash, not afraid of acid rain, oxidation resistance, ultraviolet resistance, and can protect the paint surface for a long time, and the general effect can be maintained for one year, and some products can be kept longer.

Fourth, **Different:

1. The construction of car wax is cheaper.

2. The first span of the coating is relatively large.

Advantages of coatings:

1. It has super toughness, scratch resistance, oxidation resistance, ultraviolet resistance, anti-fading, acid rain resistance, strong waterproof toughness, increased paint hardness, super gloss, etc., and has super performance to completely isolate the car paint from the outside world.

2. High finish: The protective film effect is bright and shining, making the paint finish reach more than 80 degrees.

3. High wear resistance: the protective film has 6h ultra-high strength and good wear resistance.

4. Ultra-durability: under normal use and maintenance, the car paint can be protected for more than 2 years.

5. Easy to clean: It has super self-cleaning and is not easy to stick to dust, dirt, such as acid rain, bird droppings, etc.

6. Ultra-environmental protection: the use of environmentally friendly materials, its own non-oxidation, and will not cause secondary pollution to the car paint.

Waxing is a beauty method that polishes the fine scratches on the lacquer surface by grinding to achieve a bright lacquer surface. At present, there are two main types of car wax on the market: solid wax and liquid wax, the general solid wax is grinding wax, and the liquid wax is also called brightener or bright glaze, which only needs to be evenly applied to the paint surface.

Pros: Save money, easy to operate, just do it yourself.

Disadvantages: The main component of wax is petroleum, which is corrosive to the paint surface. The timeliness is poor, generally waxing once a week, and it is gone as soon as the rain washes.

Glazing is to enhance the anti-wear ability of the paint surface by covering the car paint surface with a polymer polymer.

Advantages: improve the hardness of the paint surface, better resistance to high temperature and ultraviolet rays, which is conducive to protecting the car paint.

Disadvantages: There is a certain corrosiveness, do it once every six months, and you must go to a professional store for construction services.

Battery coatingBattery coating is an electrophoresis technology that adsorbs the highest hardness and smoothness of the substance "PTFE" on the surface of the car through electrophoresis technology that adsorbs the highest hardness and smoothness currently known to mankind to form a comprehensive protective layer that is resistant to acid, alkali, wear, ultraviolet rays and corrosion. It is currently the mainstream paint protection measure in North America.

Advantages: The general effectiveness is about 3 years, the smoothness is improved (insect corpses and asphalt can be easily wiped off), the hardness of the paint surface is increased by 3 times, and it is still bright after 150 high-pressure car washes.

Disadvantages: The construction time takes 3-4 hours. Fully imported materials, complex technology, relatively high cost.

The answer is supplemented. The new car first makes a glaze, the effect of glaze sealing and waxing is the same, but the hardness of the wax is low, the hardness of the glaze is slightly higher, the duration is slightly longer, the glaze is sealed once a year, the waxing is daily maintenance, but it can not be more, it can not be more than 6 times a year, wax a week, it looks like a car, I don't know that the paint of the car is damaged by your waxing, more than 6 times will affect the brightness of the car paint, and deep cleaning to wash off the original wax.

The order is: the new car is glazed first, and the daily maintenance is said.

Car Cleaning Maintenance Tips:

1. After the rain and before the sun comes out, reduce the corrosion of acid on the car paint.

2. If the city is dirty, it is recommended to rinse it every day, but do not use detergent.

3. The use of detergent is generally once every 3 days.

4. The use of car wax should not be more than 6 times a year, and the use of wax will affect the gloss of car paint.

5. Clean the car after running a long distance.

6. After cleaning, wipe the car dry with a long-wool cotton flannel cloth, 1. Avoid sunlight from burning the car paint through water droplets, 2. Avoid the adhesion of dust.

Waxing, sealing glaze and coating are three different paint beauty items, although the principle of action is the same, but the effect is relatively different, waxing belongs to the maintenance category, sealing glaze belongs to the protection category, coating belongs to the maintenance category, coating is better than sealing glaze and waxing in terms of retention time and comprehensiveness of protection. The differences are mainly focused on the following aspects:

Clause. First, the material is different, the main component of the wax is polyethylene emulsion or silicone polymer compounds, which belong to oxides, and the material of the coating is more silicon, which belongs to inorganic substances, organic matter is easy to oxidize, and inorganic matter does not oxidize;

Clause. Second, the process is different, the car wax is more washed car does not do the paint surface treatment directly, there are also in order to achieve a better effect rhinoceros mud after washing the car, there are very few are polished after waxing, often the paint defects are not treated, and the coating is different, before the plating needs to be polished, through polishing to remove the shallow scratches and oxide layer of the paint surface, so that the paint surface restores the original luster and improves the mirror effect, after the coating, some will use infrared lamps to accelerate curing in order to achieve a good effect;

Clause. Third, the effect is different, the car wax is the basic protection of the paint surface, easy to decompose in water, short life, no hardness, not wear-resistant, generally maintained for about a month, and the coating is a maintenance project for the paint surface, with high temperature resistance, washing resistance, friction resistance, not easy to stain ash, not afraid of acid rain, oxidation, ultraviolet resistance, can protect the paint surface for a long time, the general effect can be maintained for one year, individual products can be maintained.

three or five years; Clause.

Fourth, the first is different, if the wax construction is not polished once, the price is about 150 yuan, about 100 yuan after the discount, the first span of the coating is relatively large, the cheap one is also 800 yuan, and the expensive one thousand yuan.

In order to protect the paint surface in the long term and effectively, it is recommended to choose to do coating when driving a new car, and try to choose a mature scale beauty shop for construction in order to achieve good results.

Car coating is to put a protective film on the car, there are many colors, waxing belongs to car beauty, the waxed car looks like new, is the maintenance of the car.

Of course, there is a difference, the coating effect is better, it can last for about a year, and it is also anti-wear, while waxing can only last for 1 or 2 months, and there is no way to stop scratches.

Waxing: A beauty method that appeared earlier, the main ingredient of wax ** is oil, it is not smooth to the touch, and even has a numb feeling, and there will be some oily feeling when sticking to the hand. Waxing removes dirt from the surface of the paint and increases brightness.

Coating: The main component of the film is a substance called glass cellulose, the professional scientific name is called all-silonitrogen hydrocarbon, which exists in liquid form during operation, and can form a transparent protective layer on the surface of the paint after curing, isolating the damage of external substances to the paint surface, and the protective layer itself has a certain hardness, so the effect of protecting the paint is better.

The coating is a special substance on the surface of the car body to protect the car paint and make the car body look shiny and beautiful. It can last for more than 1 year.

The glaze is applied to the paint surface little by little with a grinding machine and polished and compacted, the glaze is permeable and will penetrate into the fine lines of the paint surface, so in addition to the same function as the coating, it can also repair small paint damage. It can last for more than 2 months.

Waxing is to put the wax on the paint surface, the car wax is semi-solid, can only simply protect the car paint, generally can be protected for 1 month, the wax will gradually fall off and become invalid. The first two belong to the paint surface comparison system and complete maintenance, and the durability is relatively strong. The latter is only daily maintenance, of course, the difference between the three is also relatively large, so there is a saying in the car beauty industry:

The poor wax, the rich coat.
