Want To Keep
Your Car
Shining? Go
For Wax!

Your car paint goes through a

lot of damage on a day-to-day
basis. The reason behind these
damages can be pollution,
rains, bird droppings, insect
fluids, Ultraviolet (UV) rays and
some other factors that we may
not even be aware of. So the
question arises how we can get
rid of this undue stress of car
damage that may happen
because of factors that are
beyond our control?

The answer to this is Car Wax.

Wax are natural products that
protect and increase the shine
of your car when it is applied to
the painted surface. It also
protects the surface from the
corrosion process and helps in
avoiding rust.

Car Wax is usually categorized

of the Carnauba plant and often
referred to as Carnauba Wax. It
OK
is blended with oils and
solvents. Synthetic Wax, also
solvents. Synthetic Wax, also
known as Paint Sealant, is
made of synthetic polymers that
stick with paint to provide an
artificial layer of protection. Car
enthusiasts prefer Carnauba
Wax over the Synthetic one.

The global car wax market is

expected to be valued at $1,126
million by the end of 2028.
Currently, China dominates the
car wax market due to the
region’s high share of the on-
road vehicle fleet. However,
India is expected to witness
steady growth over the forecast
period with 6.5% growth in the
vehicle’s production estimated
to boost the car wax market.

What does a Wax

do and why it
makes sense?
Wax makes the surface
hydrophobic that creates a layer
on the vehicle’s clear coat and
protect it from all sorts of
pollutants. A good wax will take
care of moisture, excessive
heat, UV rays and most
importantly, it will prevent the
normal oxidization process.
Applying car wax makes your
car – be it new or old – look
better.

The advantages of getting your

car waxed are tempting enough
for anyone to give it a try.

Protection from scratches

Scratches are something that

cannot be prevented entirely.
An improper car wash or even a
minor rub against your car are
reasons enough for a scratch to
appear. Such scratches can be
avoided by giving wax
protection to your car.

Gives a glossier look

This is the most common

benefit of Car Waxing. And this
is the reason behind it
becoming the most popular
aspect of car detailing. Car wax
contains natural oils that help
increase shine whenever it is
applied to any of its surfaces.

Safeguards paint from dirt

Waxing smoothens the surface

of the car. The clear coat layer
of the paint gets a shield when
waxed appropriately. This
makes it difficult for some
common dirt particles like bird
droppings to stick to the paint.

Cleaning becomes easier

Wax smoothens the car’s

surface and creates a protective
layer on the paint. This makes
cleaning of the vehicle much
easier. Since many of the dust
particles do not stick, it is easier
to wash off any residues.

Keeps the paint maintained

We have to agree that most

people judge the maintenance
of a car based on how well the
paint is reflecting. Fading of
paint is a result of neglect and
poor protection. Getting your car
waxed at regular intervals
always helps you in keeping a
shiny, clean appearance
throughout the life of your
vehicle. This also ensures a
good resale value of the car.

Ward off Water

The hydrophobic property of

wax makes the water to slide off
easily. This prevents the
formation of water spots on the
car paint. Wax adds a layer of
protection to an existing layer of
clear coat. This gives you
maximum protection against
paint damage.

Protects against sun damage

UV rays can cause a lot of

damage to the original paint
over a period of time. Wax
helps you protect this damage.

Keeps the car clean and new

The need to wash your vehicle

daily comes down significantly if
car wax is applied at regular
intervals. This is because wax
gives a cleaner and newer look
to your car for a more expended
period.

Helps cover minor

imperfections

Waxing helps you to hide minor

flaws in the paint. Wax fills the
cracks in your car’s paint.

Various Forms of
Wax

1. Paste Wax

The oldest form of car wax is

Paste Wax. It provides your car
with an ultimate glossy shine,
owing to the attributes of natural
oils it contains. However, its
texture is very hard due to
which applying it on the car
surface is not so easy. To
facilitate the application, you
may need to keep the engine
running for a while to warm up
the surface.

2. Liquid Wax

As compared to the Paste Wax,

Liquid Wax has a better texture
and easy to apply. Hence,
people prefer it over the paste
wax. Moreover, it has added
synthetic polymers because of
which it has long-lasting effects.
In fact, mostly daily drivers use
this wax.

3. Spray wax
For a quick wax job, Spray Wax
is the most likely product to be
used. However, spray wax is
just a filler as it doesn’t last long
and easily wears off within a
week. So, consider this as an
extra layer of wax over the
existing one.

4. Colored wax

The colored wax is designed

with the theory that wax which
is colored the same as your
paint color, will protect it by
filling the paint defects such as
swirls and scratches. But
modern paint anyways has a
clear transparent coat on top of
the base coat. Hence,
professionals usually don’t
recommend this product. Before
we wrap up, let’s take a quick
look at How Car Wax is
different from Car Polish? •
Car Polish helps in removing
the impurities from the surface
such as dirt, spotting, and
scratches. Whereas, Car Wax is
used to enhance and protect a
previously polished surface. •
Car Polish doesn’t protect the
paint surface as such. On the
other hand, Car wax does
protect your car’s paint and
should be applied after the car
polishing is done.

Conclusion
Undoubtedly Car Wax is one of
the best, cost-effective and less
labor-intensive option to keep
your car shining. All you need to
do is choose from the different
types and forms of car wax
available and reach out to a
professional service provider for
the ultimate experience.
