Car Wax Reviews
We also found that any wax good enough to provide some protection still
requires a dose of good old-fashioned hard work. Easy-to-use spray-on,
wipe-off products may save time and work, but they fared worst in our
durability tests and were least effective at cleaning. Liquid and paste
waxes did better as a group, but they required more effort to apply and
remove.
With the advent of the clear coat, the transparent protective top layer
of paint that has been used on new cars for the past few decades, you
aren’t likely to improve the shine on any new vehicle. But over time,
sunlight, acid rain, road debris, and other environmental factors take
their toll on a vehicle’s finish. Regular washing is the most important
aspect of paint care, but the added protection of wax can also help.
Many newer waxes and polishes are made of synthetic ingredients, but
some are still formulated with natural waxes such as Carnauba, as they
have been for *generations. The synthetic waxes in this test, however,
are most likely quite different from the ones in our May 2000 test.
Since then, manufacturers have reformulated their products, reducing
levels of volatile organic compounds to meet California Air Resources
Board regulations.
