Regular waxing is necessary to protect the paint on your car from the elements. We recommend that you wash and wax the painted surface once or twice a year.
When washing and waxing, park your vehicle in a shaded area out of direct sunlight. Always wash your vehicle before applying wax.
• Use a quality wax that does not contain abrasives.
• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to apply and remove the wax.
• Apply a small amount of wax in a back-and-forth motion, not in circles.
• Do not allow wax to come in contact with any non-body (low-gloss black) colored trim. The wax discolors or stains the parts over time, such as:
• Bumpers
• Grained door handles
• Side mouldings
• Mirror housings
• Windshield cowl area.
• Do not apply wax to glass areas.
• After waxing, your car’s paint should feel smooth, and be free of streaks and smudges.
