Liquid wax

Automotive wax is divided into two types: liquid and pasty (solid). Both options can be applied either by hand or with a machine.

To begin with, consider the principle of applying a liquid composition:

• Quite easily, liquid wax is sprayed over the area of the car body using a spray gun;
• After a while, the product must be rubbed over the surface with a soft cloth.
• In some cases, it is recommended that the product be applied first to a rag and then rubbed over the body.
• You cannot turn the rags over to the dry side during the rubbing process, since in this case you will wash the wax, and not apply it.

Hard wax

Features of using paste wax:

• This composition is applied with a special sponge or rag. The rest of the process is identical when working with a liquid formulation.
• After the product has dried on the body, it must be rubbed with a napkin.
• It is important to note that the pasty wax forms a denser layer and therefore better protection of the paintwork.

Nuances

Here are some more helpful tips to help wax your car:

• Experts recommend waxing the car body at least twice a year - before the onset of cold weather and at the beginning of summer.
• The tool does not need to be applied immediately to most of the body, but to some small areas in order to have time to process before it dries.
• Work must not be performed in bright sun or wet weather. The ambient temperature should not be lower than +7 degrees Celsius.
• Apply the wax to a clean surface.
• It is also recommended to finish rubbing with a clean, dry cloth.
