1. The key to selecting automotive polishing wax
- ① Carefully distinguish between coarse wax polishing and fine wax polishing.
Coarse polishing wax must be used first when polishing, and then fine polishing wax should be used after the paint film is polished. Using it upside down not only wastes energy, but also fails to achieve the desired effect.
- ② Distinguish between machine wax and hand wax.
It is necessary to use machine wax in conjunction with a specialized polishing machine, while hand wax is directly hand applied, scrubbed, and polished with a polishing cloth. Hand throwing machine wax not only consumes labor and time, but also has no effect. Hand wax thrown by machine will constitute severe waste.
- ③ Distinguish between solid color paint and metallic paint.
The polishing wax specially designed for metallic paint not only enhances the gloss of the paint surface, but also makes the shining effect of the metal clearer and more three-dimensional.
- ④ Distinguish between long face wax and mirror treatment wax.
Mirror treatment wax is a specialized wax for long face treatment of paint surfaces, and its maintenance function is not as good as that of long face wax. Long face wax can form a maintenance film on the paint surface to resist damage from external UV rays, acid rain, static dust, water stains, etc.
- ⑤ Distinguish between products containing silicon and products without silicon.
- ⑥ The polishing wax used for light colored paint and color detection paint cannot be mixed.
If the polishing wax of dark colored paint is used for light colored paint, it will darken the color of the paint film and create a floral appearance; On the contrary, the color of the paint film will become lighter and appear foggy.
- ⑦ Distinguish between air dried paint and baked paint.
Both 1K paint and 2K paint can be polished on their surfaces, but the polishing wax used is different. Because these types of paints contain different solvents, using them incorrectly can cause the paint film to become soft, cracked, and discolored.
- ① Select genuine and branded products.
- ② Conduct on-site experiments.
- ③ Refer to the instructions for use.
