Facts to about Car Polishing:

Waxing is just a process of protecting the car’s paintwork after proper polishing using the natural carnauba products that is usually available in a solid paste form in auto detailing market. The wax does not constitute any kind of abrasives or say fillers and so would not really enhance the vehicle’s paintwork alone. When professionally applied to the properly prepared, cleaned and polished surface though, the car wax can really help to add a kind of depth and witness to the real finished paintwork.

People often confused with, or name it as a wax, an automobile sealant is simply a product made of synthetic ‘wax’ which usually turns up in the form of bottled liquid but there are companies that even have sealants in paste form.
