Make sure your car is as clean as possible and towel dry. Inspect the paint to see if polishing will be needed before you apply your wax. There isn't much point waxing a scruffy, stone chipped mess of a car. If your paint is looking good then all you need to do is make sure your car isn't in direct sunlight before you set to work waxing it. Wax acts as a protectant to your paint. If you've ever been gifted some artisan waxed cheese you'll be familiar with the protective qualities of a wax casing; it'll protect the cheese from water, sun and other contaminants. Car wax works the same but on a much larger scale and the layer it forms is invisible. A good car was won't wear off easily and will protect your paint from heat, UV rays, water and other contaminants. Some of the more expensive waxes will also provide a nice deep shine. Both will create a protective layer for your car’s paint from UV rays, water and other contaminants but do not last as long as synthetic waxes. You’ll typically need to wax your car every six weeks if you use carnauba wax.

Only 2-4 sprays are needed per panel – anymore and Aqua Wax can be difficult to buff off. Simply spray onto the car and wipe each panel with the microfiber cloth applicator. Once done, follow up by buffing off the residue with a separate clean microfiber cloth. You’ll then be left with a decent shine and wax protection that provides impressive water beading.

However, Aqua Wax does have its limitations. It’s not a polish, so can’t remove scratches, swirls or improve the appearance of dull/faded paintwork. Dedicated polishes are needed in these situations.

An award winning product that’s proved its worth over many years, Rapid Aqua Wax is the perfect standby and one well worth keeping in your car at all times Aqua Wax is specially formulated to impart a brilliant smear-free finish on ALL exterior surfaces, even when the vehicle is wet. The immediate benefit is that there is no need to dry the car between washing and polishing.

Traditional hard wax or cream polishes can take quite a while to apply, require a fair amount of elbow grease and can’t be used if the paintwork has any water on it whatsoever… and that’s highly likely after you’ve just washed and leathered the car, so the only answer is to wait while the bodywork fully dries. This can take hours. Aqua sprays are sprayed on when the car is wet. In some cases, you can then wipe over once to apply the wax, shine and dry the car. How often do you need to apply car wax? How long does each treatment last? Aqua Wax is not a polish, so will not remove or improve the appearance of scratches, swirls or dull paint. Features & Benefits: Pure carnauba wax is yellow in colour and expensive but will give a deep shine and excellent protection. White carnauba wax contains additives including beeswax and turpentine and is cheaper to buy but will still protect your paintwork. Both types are available in paste, spray and liquid form. Carnauba wax is an organic wax that is often regarded as the only ‘proper’ car wax available. Extracted from the leaves of the carnauba palm tree it’s the hardest natural wax in existence and is incredibly effective against water.

Aqua Wax is not a polish, so will not remove or improve the appearance of scratches, swirls or dull paint. If your paint has these problems use Super Resin Polish.
