Which is better - carnauba, ceramic or synthetic wax?
There is no definitive answer: it depends on the desired characteristics of the finish and the operating conditions of the vehicle. Natural carnauba car waxes are hard-set, non-toxic products that offer a superior gloss and depth to the car’s paint whilst promoting water beading and protection against sun damage. Man-made, synthetic car waxes, or sealers, offer longer-lasting protection than carnauba because they bond with the paint – albeit with a finish not as appealing. Ceramic coatings, on the other hand, have excellent heat insulation and anti-oxidation properties, which gives them a durability that exceeds any wax. They are also not restricted to paint surfaces and can be used to protect almost any surface.
