Solid waxes are the most common type of wax. These come in the form of a solid paste that is applied by hand to the car’s paintwork using an applicator.
Once the wax dries on the paintwork after a few minutes, it is spread with a microfiber cloth. However, the most important thing when applying hard waxes is the preparation of the paintwork before the waxing process. This is essential for the wax to work properly and for the length of time it will protect your car’s paint.
The paintwork must be washed, chemically and mechanically decontaminated and polished before application.
The advantage of liquid waxes in particular is that they are very easy and quick to apply and polish. Liquid waxes are suitable for those who have no experience with waxing and prefer speed of application. In most cases, it is sufficient to thoroughly wash or decontaminate the car before application.
The protection time of liquid waxes usually ranges from two to three months, with waxes containing synthetic polymers it can be considerably longer.
