If you have been browsing your favourite car valet’s service list you may have run across car waxing, hydro wax or other wax detailing. While the name can seem strange – this ‘stuff’ provides different benefits for your vehicle. In today’s blog, we are going to be sharing what car wax is and why we use it.
What is Car Wax?
First and foremost, car wax is wax. That will be the heart and soul of each product. But, to get into the nitty-gritty…
Car wax is a combination of wax and solvents that are used to make it easier to spread across your vehicle.
The quality of the products can vary greatly as there is more than one kind of wax can used as “car wax” and that is paired with a variety of oils and solvents to make it easier to layer on top of your car.
Here at WL Mobile Valeting, we pride ourselves in using quality products at an affordable rate – so you never have to worry about damaging your car in a poorly constructed wax. Instead – you will get all of the benefits!
Why Do People Use Wax?:
The main reason we use wax when cleaning and detailing your car is to create a protective barrier between your car’s paint and the outside world.
Some of the waxes are ideal for removing dust and fingerprints and others can be used to minimize superficial scratches.
What Types of Wax Are There?:
Natural Wax:
This is a wax that comes from a plant. The most common is the carnauba. It offers a fantastic barrier for protection and a beautiful shine. Carnauba is beloved by dark-coloured car owners as it can be used to enhance their car’s hue. It will need to be applied more often than non-natural waxes.
What is Synthetic Car Wax:
Synthetic wax is created with chemicals that can actually bond with your car’s paint – making the wax last much longer than the natural alternative. There are some available that strip any dirt from your car! It is also much more affordable.
