I grew up in the Southwest and I always remember my dad waxing the car. Car wax is not something people have in their garages at home here in New York where I now live. In California, cars are much more than just cars. People spend a lot more money on dressing up their cars than they do here. They add chrome wheels and custom door lock knobs. It is a way to express yourself. It is who you are. A car is a way to get around on the East Coast. Even if you do not pimp out your car and just use it to get around in California, the sun can eat away at your car pretty quickly. Car wax is, therefore, a necessity there to protect your car. Regular waxing will keep your car looking as new as when you bought it. So how often do you need to wax your car? Most car experts say it depends on what kind of car wax you use and how flawless you want your car to look. If you are a perfectionist, you could be waxing your car all the time under those rules. According to the description on car wax containers, it is time to wax again if rain water does not bead up on the paint. You have two choices for waxing your car. You can do it yourself (or make one of your kids do it, in which case, there are three options for getting your car waxed) or take it to a detailer and have the professionals do it. Whenever I wax my car, it does not seem to stay shiny as long as when I have a car detailing place do it. It could be that they are using better car wax or that I just have bad technique. But here is how the experts tell you to apply car wax. Start with a freshly washed car. Do not wax in the direct sunlight or if it is too cold. Make sure you do not feel any grit when you run your hand over the paint. If you do, you can apply a non abrasive cleaner meant for car surfaces to smooth it up. Use a damp sponge and douse it in the car wax. Rub it on your car in small circles. Make sure you remember where you have applied it, as you cover the entire painted surface. Remove the wax (in the order in which it was applied) with a cloth or cloth diaper. To avoid streaking and build up, shake out your towel every so often. Use a new clean cloth to polish the entire surface and make sure there are no spots of wax left. . Find more Car washing .
