The 5 Most Important Questions to Ask Before
you Buy Car Wax or Auto Polish:
5. What can I do to be sure that I get the most for my money when I wax or polish my car?
The best car wax you can buy will have a portion of the wax made from Carnauba a very expensive by-product of a Brazilian plant (Carnauba is an additive used in some percentage) that lends a degree of longevity to an automotive wax.
Unfortunately, even though the addition of Carnauba extends the life of the wax-job, it is still extremely short lived by comparison to Amazing Glaze. Hot sunny days in our summer climate can burn off a new wax job in less than a week or two. Amazing Glaze will cost a little more than a typical automotive wax, but will last and last. Computing the cost per/month of coverage and protection from both will make Amazing Glaze come out at a fraction of the cost of wax, and a tiny fraction of the work of multiple waxing to achieve similar results.
4. Does the color of my car make a difference in what I use to protect and enhance my paint?
You bet it does! If you have a black or other dark paint job the surface temperature of your vehicle will skyrocket on a hot, cloudless day. In mid-summer, you can fry an egg on your hood, trunk or car's roof. This dramatic increase in temperature will greatly affect the longevity of wax's effectiveness. Simply stated, wax burns off!
Amazing Glaze will not burn off. In the roughest Climatic conditions the paint on your vehicle will face, such as San Diego or Miami with constant sunshine and a salt water environment, you can expect six months or more of optimum protection with Amazing Glaze instead of two, three or (maybe even) six weeks of protection from the best waxes. In cooler climates without salt laden air and less intense sunshine, the protection from Amazing Glaze stretches to a full year or more. Dark colors have no effect on the length of time Amazing Glaze will last and it provides the ultimate in protection against fading and oxidation.
3. Does a fresh waxing provide any help in protecting my paint from dust storms or road dirt?
Hardly a bit! Wax is just too soft to provide even the slightest amount of protection from a mid-summer dust storm or a highly polluted area such as those found near heavy-industry or a dry dusty environment. Some areas, particularly in the southwest are particularly vulnerable to this kind of weathering abuse.
All wax is extremely soft (though some are less soft than others), while Amazing Glaze's extremely hard coating greatly reduces the amount of paint damage and degradation caused by hard pollutants in the air such as dust, dirt and sand. The few microns of Amazing Glaze that cover your paint, though crystal clear, imparts a surface so hard that the vast majority of all degradation caused by air-borne pollutants and particulates can be avoided.
2. Will the wax I buy make it easier to keep my car clean?
Not at all In fact - just the opposite is true. Many people think of the beading effect on water that wax imparts as a positive factor in keeping your car clean and easy to wash. Wax actually creates surface tension to water when it's applied. That is the whole reason why water beads and sticks to it. When not immediately and thoroughly dried off the water leaves whatever contaminants it contained on the paint, or even if perfectly pure, it will grab and hold any pollutant or particulate that comes in contact with it prior to drying!
Amazing Glaze, on the other hand, eliminates surface tension and water will sheet off of it rather than bead up and stick to it. This difference is what accounts for why a vehicle, boat or airplane treated with Amazing Glaze is so easy to clean and maintain.
1. And the number one thing to ask yourself before you buy your next can or bottle of wax to spiff up a car or light truck is Just how much work am I getting myself into?
Remember: first and foremost, the positive affects a wax or polish job can be extremely short lived! Waxing in hot summer conditions has an extremely short useful life span. Even if the application was just as easy to do with wax as with Amazing Glaze (and it's not) you'd have to continue to duplicate the process at least ten to twenty more times to have anything near the same continuous amount of protection!
All things being equal, Amazing Glaze is considerably easier to apply than any wax or polish. Because Amazing Glaze has roughly the same viscosity (it's just about as runny) as tap water, there is none of the rubbing and going over again and again that is normal for a wax application. We recommend using a palm size microfiber pad to apply Amazing Glaze so as not to pick up anything than can impart nearly imperceptible scratches into the paint from surface contamination. These are the scratches or swirl marks that are so often visible in black and other very dark painted vehicles.
In addition, once applied, there is far less buffing needed which is the real culprit in work-overload that is attached to waxing! Amazing Glaze does call for a final buff to insure that no streaking will occur, but this is a far cry from what it takes to remove excess wax or polish and get the dry wax film off to be able to see the paint underneath. With Amazing Glaze it's more of a once over swipe with a damp towel and your off to the races!
