    If the car waxing really hurts the car paint, the owners of the waxing are all fools, and the waxing is to protect the paint. If there must be any harm, it is that the quality of the wax chosen is too poor. **I haven't heard of this brand, but we all use Honeywell's classic wax, we have used it for many years, the quality has been good, and Honeywell is an international brand, his classic wax has solid, there are also liquids to choose from, if used with Honeywell's color brightener, the effect is great.

    I've always used it. If you don't believe me, you can check Honeywell auto supplies online and make sure you don't regret it.

    All waxes are divided into "decontamination wax" and "varnishing protective wax" according to their efficacy

    Most of the decontamination waxes contain abrasive ingredients and are not suitable for use on dark-colored cars (subtle scratches are especially noticeable on dark-colored paints). Some car beauty shops use the decontamination wax with abrasive ingredients on the dark car, which is the so-called wound paint, while the varnishing protection wax does not contain abrasive ingredients, remember the effect of the above two waxes, no matter what brand of wax is the same.

    As for the brands of wax, there are Micron, Tortoise, 3M in the United States. Germany has Sonax and Japan focuses on inorganic fiber chemical membranes.

    Of course, there are also more expensive but very effective pure natural car waxes, such as Zymol in the United States, swissvax in Switzerland and so on.

    Only by understanding the construction principle and using good products can you keep your car as good as new forever!

    At present, only inorganic wax does not damage the paint. But ** more expensive than petroleum distillate wax. Inorganic wax must be used for waxing in autumn.

    Never use petroleum distillate wax. Inorganic material waxes are non-oily. The petroleum distillate, wax, crystal wax, diamond wax, and extreme wax are all produced from paraffin materials.

    Because the petroleum distillate wax is susceptible to oxidation of the paint surface. After all, wax is oily, autumn wind and sand are large, adsorbed on the viscous petroleum wax, the paint surface is scratched by particles, resulting in scratches. Do not coat either.

    The coating is afraid of being scratched. Because it is not possible to spray paint and touch up. The coating layer isolates the combination of the old and new paint surfaces, resulting in color differences, and the paint surface is particularly unsightly.

    So very few people are willing to coat. It is better to play inorganic wax. Petroleum distillate wax should never be beaten.

    I have used the crystal wax you said, diamond wax, extreme wax, platinum wax are all petroleum distillate waxes, not waterproof waxes, waxes are oily, easy to absorb dust. The best wax is an inorganic wax. There are them available online.

    Inorganic wax is an inorganic material that is waterproof well. There is multi-functional. Petroleum distillate wax has only one functional brightness.

    Inorganic wax is not only bright, but also has the function of decontamination, oxidation marks, acid rain, tar, and gum. The biggest disadvantage of petroleum wax is that there are many scratches on the paint surface after several beatings. Inorganic wax can not only repair scratches, but also will not appear paint scratches for several years.

    Buy a bottle of inorganic wax, you can play it once every two months, do it yourself, the sky is high, and the sky is refreshing. You can also let the car wash do it for you. Pay a little for the labor.

    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.

    For the choice of car wax, there are many kinds on the market, from the role of protective wax, repair wax, bright wax, etc., you can choose according to your own needs, you can also go to the regular car beauty shop to consult.

    1. The main component of wax is petroleum, which is corrosive to the paint surface.

    2. The second is that the paint surface is easy to wear. Generally, wax contains abrasive particles, and the brightness of the paint is actually made by grinding particles that cannot be seen by the naked eye. Grinding too often is obviously not good for long-lasting paint brightness.

    3. Again, it is adhered to dirt. 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" at best, and even in winter it can reach more than 30 degrees.

    Therefore, moderate waxing can effectively protect the paint surface and make the car always look beautiful. There are also disadvantages of waxing too often.

    Car waxing, polishing, glazing.

    Ordinary car care - waxing, polishing, glazing, although it can increase a certain brightness, but it will bring ***. Car wax itself is a soft substance that can be easily lost, which means that wax is largely ineffective when the paint surface needs protection the most. In addition, because any car wax contains silicone, long-term ultraviolet exposure will rust the car paint, leaving a little black spots, especially the abrasive particles in the car wax will form vortex hair scratches on the shiny 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 a paint surface full of scratches, so you have to continue waxing until polishing.

    The damage of polishing to the transparent paint layer is greater, generally after 3 times of polishing, the transparent paint layer will be removed, thereby accelerating the car to become old, in addition, polishing, sealing glaze is easy to thin the car paint, because the sealing glaze must first be polished, grinding, and then sealed twice with the glaze sealing machine at least to, although it felt brighter at the time, but due to the strong cutting force of the tool and the rough wax, it is easy to form deep vortex scratches and destroy the car paint.

    The petroleum components contained in the car wax will accelerate the oxidation of the car paint, making the brightness of the car paint gray and dark.

    Therefore, it is necessary to remove the oxide on the surface of the paint by waxing frequently in order to maintain the glossy feeling of the paint.

    That's why waxed cars generally need to be waxed frequently.

    You can go and observe more, those cars with gray paint are often waxed and disfigured by wax.

    A car that is never waxed, as long as it is clean, the paint can maintain a consistent shine and texture.

    In addition, frequent waxing, although it can maintain the brightness of the paint, but each time the waxing of the paint makes the paint thinner and thinner, the brightest layer of the paint is the topcoat, which is easy to be polished off, and finally the gain outweighs the loss.

    Therefore, the majority of riders need to be cautious when using car wax. Car wax is like cosmetics for women, it is okay when it has not been used, but once it is used, it will become dependent, and if it is not used, it is not as good as before (because cosmetics are harmful to **), and the same is true for car wax.

    The car is used for use, and what really needs to be maintained is the engine, various transmission systems, tires, etc., which is what should really be paid attention to. As long as the appearance is kept clean and clean, there is no need to put in so much superficial effort that is not worth the loss.

    The best of car wax mainly comes from two aspects, on the one hand, the composition of the car wax itself, most of which are petroleum extracts, and there are relatively few car waxes are resins, resin car waxes are more expensive, because this kind of substances are relatively easy to oxidize, and the main components of car paint are also resins, which are also easy to oxidize, so in addition to the short protection period of car wax, regular waxing may not only not protect the car paint but even accelerate the oxidation of the car paint, which is why the black car that is often waxed is often dark, and the white car is often yellow. This is a common problem with car wax. The second aspect is the type of car wax, for example, the brightening of some car wax is often due to the effect of abrasives contained in it, and the application plays a grinding role at the same time, this kind of car wax has more of a kind of grinding damage, careful people will find that the car wax is very bright just after playing, but a car wash found that there are many more small scratches, which is the result of grinding car wax, not only personally, but even some beauty shops also use this kind of car wax in order to increase the brightness of the paint surface for a short time.

    In short, almost almost, the owner might as well choose DIY coating, you can easily operate yourself, nothing, and better than the car wax protection effect, for example, there is a senior version in the DIY coating series, although you use it yourself, the effect is almost no less than that of a professional beauty shop, but the cost is only a fraction of the beauty shop.

    Waxing misconception 1, the more expensive the car wax, the better.

    The performance of various car waxes in car beauty is different, and its role and effect are not the same, so you must be cautious when choosing, and improper selection will change the color of the car paint. In general, it should be considered according to the characteristics of the car wax, the newness of the vehicle, the color of the paint and the driving environment. In summer, it is advisable to use anti-ultraviolet car wax, and when the driving environment is poor, apply wax with outstanding protective effect, and choose a composite well-known brand, which has multiple effects.

    Waxing myth 2: Waxing is not always as frequent as possible.

    Car beauty waxing is a good measure to protect the paint surface of the car, so many car owners think that the car is not afraid of acid rain and heavy snow, and at the same time can make the car paint dazzling. Frequent waxing may cause the dust of the body itself to scratch the paint surface during the waxing process, so it is recommended to analyze it on a case-by-case basis.

    Waxing myth 3: Waxing does not require skill.

    It is best to wash the dirt and dust on the exterior of the car body with car wash water before car beauty waxing. Remember not to use dish soap and soapy water blindly.

    Waxing will not harm the car paint.

    Waxing is one of the most traditional and cost-effective methods of paint protection. The main function is to inhibit the oxidation of the car paint by external harmful components, anti-ultraviolet rays, and can improve the brightness of the car paint. However, the maintenance time is short, generally about 1 month, and it is afraid of water, and it will lose its effect when it rains or washes the car.

    It depends on what wax, except for the soft wax used for polishing, the liquid wax is harmful to the car paint, and the other hard waxes are not harmful.

    As long as it is not polished and waxed regularly (it is recommended to polish it once every three months or so), it will not have much impact.

    The varnish on the surface of the body is a transparent layer, similar to plastic, which can prevent the general small scratches and protect the paint, and the general polishing is to remove the small scratches, the principle is to use wax to grind this layer of plastic to make it smooth and flat, and regular polishing will make the varnish thinner and thinner, and finally it is easy to hurt the paint.

    Polishing is generally used 5973, suitable for scratches, painted or driven for a certain period of time, throw once with 5990, new cars are best to use 5990 directly, this wax is relatively delicate than 5973, and finally wipe a hard wax OK.

    Of course, waxing also has many benefits, the most important thing is to protect the color paint, the most obvious is to add light, and the other is anti-corrosion and dust-proof.

    Car waxing and polishing to many car owners cause damage to the impression of car paint, but waxing, glaze itself will not cause damage to the paint, but can better protect the paint, mainly because of many irresponsible car beauty shops, in order to let the owner see the intuitive car paint bright effect, in the waxing and glazing process of frequent polishing and grinding of the car paint, will naturally make the paint thinner and thinner, and even the possibility of throwing through. For this reason, experts remind that it is better to polish a car no more than 5 times in a "lifetime".

    In general, there are three essential steps to waxing. 1. Cleaning. In order to ensure the waxing effect, the vehicle must be thoroughly cleaned before waxing.

    2. Waxing. Waxing can be divided into manual waxing and mechanical waxing, manual, waxing is simple and easy, mechanical waxing efficiency is high. Whether waxed by hand or with a waxing machine, ensure that the paint is evenly applied.

    When waxing by hand, first apply an appropriate amount of car wax on the sponge, and then apply it in a straight line in a fixed order, and each application should be repeated with the previous application to prevent missing coating and ensure uniform application.

    03. Polishing. According to the instructions of different waxes, polishing can be carried out in 5 to 10 minutes after application. When polishing, follow the principle of waxing first and polishing first to ensure that the polished car surface is not polluted, and the polishing operation usually uses a non-woven towel to reciprocate in a straight line, and press it appropriately to remove the remaining wax.

    Wax yourself and remember:

    According to experience and the introduction of some car dealer waxing masters, waxing must master several skills, otherwise it will be appropriate.

    On the contrary, let your car get hurt.

    1. The waxing operation environment is clean and well ventilated.

    2. 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.

    3. Waxing should be followed first. The principle of "up, back down", that is, the roof, front and rear covers, and sides of the car are applied first.

    4. When waxing, if the sponge appears the same color as the car paint, it may be that the paint surface has been damaged, and the waxing should be stopped immediately and repaired.

    5. The polishing operation should be carried out within the specified time after the waxing is completed, and the polishing should also be reciprocated in a straight line. Unpolished vehicles are never allowed. Drive on the road, otherwise polishing, it is easy to cause scratches on the paint surface.

    6. After polishing, carefully inspect and remove the residual wax from the license plate, lights, door edges, etc., to prevent corrosion;
