With glitter and use: how and why is the car coating wax

Each driver with the soul, which refers to your car to ensure the most effective care and quality service. Spare parts from well-known brands, the best oils and chemicals, as well as check fuel and high-quality rubber – all of this helps to prolong the life of the car and remain unscathed. Many say that security starts with the wheels, while the car look begins with a clean and well-groomed body.

The benefits of car wax

Depending on the interval of use for each type of substance, the wax has the following advantages:

1. Protection from corrosion.
2. Repel dust, dirt particles.
3. The gain of the gloss and paint colors.
4. Protection against mechanical impacts.
5. To simplify cleaning, tar and traces of insects when re-appearance.

Types of wax and methods of use

Car wax is made from synthetic materials, similar in composition, with natural wax, and various silicone compounds and waxes. Result of the application of wax Polish becomes the thinnest protective film and the shine of the car. In the market chemistry is dominated by several types of wax, different composition, the method and the use of technology on colour.

Differences wax physical condition:

• wax spray;
• liquid wax;
• a solid wax;
• synthetic liquid wax.

Wax spray

Comfort form, which is processed from large areas of the paintwork, without the use of a stepped treatment of the body (only rinse and apply a suspension). The characteristic of the current forms, is the formation of a too thin protective film, which is already 2-3 sinks will lose its function. The protective properties to fully provide barriers from the environment.

Liquid wax

Liquid wax is a step the best protective and aesthetic properties. Use of technology is much more demanding on the speed and skill of a master. Apply on washed car out of direct sunlight, more layers of applied wax. Each layer dries and is rubbed suede cloth.

Hard wax

Provides maximum brilliance and an unmatched look of your car.

It is recommended to apply in two layers, with intervals for drying in one day. Used and ground with a special grinding machine with a gearbox.

The protective coating lasts for more than one month. The most expensive and demanding on the professionalism of the operation.

Synthetic liquid wax

Depending on the method of application is different from the liquid wax. Thanks to the unique formula and specific properties, it offers protection for up to 6 months with repeated washing cycles of the car. The cost for this type of wax is the greatest.

The choice of wax depending on the color support

The result of a rash choice becomes the lack of effect of the procedure.

Experts recommend that you select the wax (composition, barrier properties, active and additional ingredients) depending on the color of the car.

For example, the white color of the machine is the most clearly show the influence of the environment (the direct accumulation of dust and dirt, loss of gloss). Cars cherry or blue color most prone to fading. For LCP black color, typical of the thinking and the holograms and cobweb (minor scratches).

We recommend that you choose the purpose of the application of wax:

• providing a brilliant Shine and reflectivity of the color;
• the time characteristics of the protective film;
• the degree of reflectivity of the particles;
• gain/update the colors.

This approach for upgrading the look of the most competent and effective.

When and how to use wax

In the winter, it is recommended that the use of synthetic waxes, as it has the highest level of protection for the bodywork and paintwork (very important when on the roads of reagents and salts).

In the summer months, to protect against dust, you can use liquid or aerosol options.

Optionally, the procedure car wash with the shampoos containing the wax. Unlike ordinary car wash will be the emergence of small protective film and the weak to improve the color of color.

Treatment with car wax is recommended 2-3 times per year.

• Waxing starts with a full car wash and removal of tar and insects mineral spirits or automotive clay.Before proceeding, make sure that there is no direct rays, as well as the quality of the lighting for the detection of defects in polishing.
• Apply a small amount of wax paste on the element body. Use felt or rubber squeegee. Wait for the drying of the wax until the color and texture of the composition.
• RUB the soft cloth (chamois or microfiber). Repeat the procedure on the remaining elements of the paint.

In the case of the plastics in the cabin of the technology does not change, but with a certain wax for plastics.

What is a hot wax

The difference between these types of coatings is the use of technology, as well as a more aggressive compounds. Has nothing to do with the coating of "liquid glass". To apply such a wax is heated using an atomizer, or a solid fill elements. Used this wax a large surface area (desirable elements), without gaps. After it is placed to dry and pounded with a suede or polishing machine. After the process of forming a strong protective layer, which is based on the paintwork throughout the season and can withstand up to 30 washing cycles. The composition of the hot wax is different from the classic cold.

Finish

Use wax to nail Polish — a useful procedure. But it is not necessary to abuse. The thing is that the wax clogs the micropores of the body, which creates the greenhouse effect. Clogging can lead to loss of quality of finish (in all senses).

Therefore, using certain types of wax, follow the guidelines for the use of:

• spray wax every 1-2 cleaning;
• liquid wax every 3-4 wash;
• hard wax 1-2 months;
• synthetic or hot wax after 6-12 months.
