Should I polish my car before waxing ?
Polishing refers to a repair process performed when scratches, oxidation or defects appear on the surface of the car body. Polishing uses abrasives and polishers to finely grind and polish the surface of the car body to remove scratches, oxide layers and other defects, so that the car paint can be restored to smoothness and brightness.
Car paint waxing is an important part of car maintenance. It can provide a protective film for the car paint to prevent damage to the car paint by external factors such as ultraviolet rays, acid rain, and bird droppings. At the same time, it can also increase the gloss of the car paint and make the vehicle appearance brighter.
Whether to polish the car paint before waxing depends on the condition of the car paint.The paint of a new car is relatively intact and does not need to be polished. It can be waxed directly after cleaning.If the scratches and oxidation of the car paint are serious,it is necessary to polish and repair the paint surface before waxing.Because the polished car paint surface is smoother, which is conducive to the uniform adhesion of wax. When waxing, the wax can better penetrate into the tiny pores of the car paint, forming a denser and more durable protective layer.
