Car Wax FAQs
What is better wax or polish for car?
Polish will remove minor scratches, and restore your car’s paint, while car wax will protect the surface and add shine. For best results, we recommend polishing your car first, and then applying a quality car wax for long-lasting protection and that sought-after glossy finish.
Is spray wax good for your car?
Spray wax is great for quick shine and light protection between your full wax applications. We recommend using a spray wax after washing to help maintain your car’s glossy finish. It is easy to use, however, a thorough car wax is better for added depth.
How to remove wax on a car?
Use a wax remover or gentle car shampoo, rub lightly with a soft cloth, and rinse off. This clears the surface so your next coat of car wax goes on smooth and shines beautifully.
What is the best wax for cars?
The best car wax is easy to use, makes your car gleam, and keeps paint safe. Liquid, paste, or spray works whatever you prefer. At Halfords, brands like Autoglym and Turtle Wax are great picks they give your car that fresh, glossy look and last for weeks.
How often do you wax your car?
Every 6–8 weeks is usually enough. If your car spends a lot of time outside or you wash it often, a little more frequently helps. A simple layer of car wax keeps the paint looking fresh, shiny, and cared for without much effort.
How long does car wax last?
Most of the car wax lasts around 4–8 weeks. Higher-quality options from Halfords can sometimes protect paint for up to 3 months. Just check your car’s shine regularly and reapply when it starts looking dull.
