Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I wax my car with budget products?

Most budget car waxes should be reapplied every 2-4 months, depending on your climate, driving conditions, and storage situation. Cars exposed to harsh sun, salt, or frequent washing may need more frequent waxing.

Can I apply wax over existing wax or should I remove it first?

Generally, you can apply a fresh coat over existing wax if it's been less than 6 months and the surface is clean. However, if the old wax is degraded, patchy, or contaminated, it's better to use a clay bar or polish to remove it first.

Do I need special tools to apply car wax?

Basic application typically requires microfiber cloths or applicator pads, which are often included with the product. Some liquid waxes can be applied by hand, while others work best with foam applicators or microfiber cloths.

Will budget wax damage clear coat or painted surfaces?

Quality budget waxes are formulated to be safe for automotive clear coats and paint. Always test in an inconspicuous area first and follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding application temperature and surface preparation.
