What is car waxing?
There are two main types of car waxes liquid
and paste. Car wax can be made from natural as
well as synthetic materials. Traditionally paste
type wax is used to provide sheen to the
vehicles paint. It creates an additional
protective layering over cars paint. The wax
layer provides an extra shine to the cars
exteriors and protects the cars paint by making
the water to form beads and fall off the surface
quickly. Waxing also filters the UV rays falling
on the cars surface and prevents it from fading
during long hours of exposure to sun. Waxing
creates a physical barrier between the cars
paint and extrinsic factors, such as salt, dirt
and other contaminants and thus helps in slowing
down the oxidation that is the main cause of
metal deterioration during storage and driving

Liquid wax is quite similar to the paste wax in
terms of constituents and function, the only
difference is that it is produced in a thinner
form. With both forms of wax, you need to rub the
wax on cars surface, letting it to dry with a
dull luster, then rubbing off the extra wax with
the help of a clean cloth and bringing out the
glossy shine. The wax then remains on the cars
surface for several months before wearing off.

What is polishing?
Car polish is used to remove scratches, dirt and
fine lines from the cars body. Car polish
contains some abrasive chemicals that acts on the
cars paint and removes a very thin layer of it,
diminishing the scratches and making the fine
lines to vanish away. It also contains additional
solid components that settle into the fine
scratches and does away with the scratches
minimizing their appearance by blending them with
rest of the surface and reflecting the light
evenly. Polishing job can be accomplished by hand
or with power polisher. Most of the car polishes
also contain wax to produce a glossy appearance.

Similarities and difference
Car polish service in Singapore can be used to
get your car polished or waxed or both. In most
cases waxing is performed after polishing.
Polishing removes a layer from the cars surface
whereas waxing adds a protective layer. While
most of the car waxes serve similar purpose, car
polishes are often marketed for particular types
of paint, and many of them even contain colors.
After application it is not necessary to remove
the car polish like in case of waxing, however
the extra polish should be wiped off to prevent
running off or streaking. Whether you need to
polish or wax your car, it largely depends on the
condition of the cars paint and the finish you
require.
