Wax your car

Even though manufacturers claim that many of today’s cars have a clear coat of paint that gives cars all the protection they need, nothing makes a car sparkle like a fresh coat of wax.

You Will Need

* A can or bottle of car wax
* Two clean rags
* Two thick towels, preferably micro fiber
* And a bottle of household cleaner

Park in shade : Park your clean, dry car in a shaded area and allow it to cool down.Shake wax & apply to rag : Shake the liquid wax container well and apply a small amount to a clean rag.Make sure the wax is non-abrasive.

Apply wax : Starting with the roof, apply the wax in small, circular motions. The goal is to apply as thin layer of wax as possible.

Continue rubbing sections : Continue rubbing in sections, moving to the hood, the trunk, and finally the sides of the car.Try to avoid getting wax on anything besides the body of the car, like the black rubber window seals.

Allow wax to dry : Allow the wax to dry to a dull finish.

Remove dry wax : Using a micro fiber towel, remove the dry wax in reverse circular motions, again going from the highest point of the car to the lowest.
Remove stray wax residue : Spray household cleaner on matte, unpainted surfaces, like a plastic bumper, and wipe with a second clean rag to remove any stray wax residue.

Buff car surface : Buff the car’s surface one last time, using the second microfiber towel. Then stand back and admire your reflection!
