How Good Are Waxes Sprayed On At Car Washes?

Because these waxes have to be diluted with water to be sprayed on your car, you are getting minimal protection. Not to mention, if it was durable, the wax would be visible on your windows. It is far better to apply your wax by hand to insure maximum protection.

For those owners whose vehicles I polish professionally, I tell them I DO NOT recommend adding wax at the automatic car washes because it will lay on top of my polish, which has a high gloss, and tend to dull that gloss.
I've waxed my car, but it still looks dull. Is it the wax?

A true wax should be nothing more than a protective coating with a little color enhancing. A smooth, flawless shine is only achieved by pre-cleaning the paint, before applying the wax. Swirls, light scratches, and oxidized paint are major causes of dull paint. Swirl Removers that utilize mild abrasives, can safely and easily remove surface contaminants. Once they are removed, the paint regains its depth and gloss. Then wax is applied to keep it that way.
