FAQs
What is the difference between a wax and a polish?
Many products in the market, whether called "wax" or "polish", contain polishing agents. Polishing agents remove paint and create swirl marks on the painted surface. Fine polishing agents create fine swirl marks and remove less paint. The swirl marks become very visible after the wax wears off. Optimum Car Wax offers long-lasting protection without damaging or removing the clear coat finish.

Why do many wax /polish products contain abrasives?
Conventional waxes and polishes were designed for older enamel finishes to remove oxidized pigments and colorants. Paint technology has come a long way in the past decade; however, many wax /polish manufacturers still offer the same old technologies.
How can I protect the clear coat finish on my car?
Only use automotive car wash soaps to wash your car. Use microfiber cloths for drying and/or waxing your car. Apply Optimum Car Wax with UV once every four months to the painted surfaces to get maximum protection.
What is the difference between liquid and paste wax /polish?
The only difference between liquid and paste waxes /polishes is thickening agents. Both conventional liquid and paste waxes/polishes can contain abrasives which can harm the clear coat finish. Look for products that specifically state that they do not contain abrasives or cleaners.
How do I remove swirl marks or deep scratches?
Optimum Car Wax with UV is helps hide the swirl marks without creating new ones. If there are deep scratches, a random orbital polisher with a foam pad is best way to apply a swirl remover, such as Optimum Polish.
Why should I wax my car if it has a clear coat finish?
Clear coat finishes contain additives to reduce scratching and marring and protect the clear coat from environmental elements such as acid rain, bird droppings, tree sap, etc. These additives also cause water beading on new cars. After a few months, these surface protectants are eroded by the environmental elements. Optimum Car Wax will restore this protective layer. Furthermore, it helps reduce fading from exposure to the sun.
What is the benefit of UV inhibitors in Optimum Car Wax?
UV inhibitors help keep the color from fading and are present in the clear coat finish. These become deactivated or consumed over time. The UV inhibitors in Optimum Car Wax augment these and help protect the paint from fading.
Can I use an orbital buffer with Optimum Car Wax to wax my car?
Absolutely. In fact, most detail shops use Optimum Car Wax with high speed polishers or orbital buffers. You must use a low density foam pad with your dual action (orbital) buffer or polisher. This combination results in a very high gloss finish in a few minutes.
Should I use polish/wax to remove oxidized paint?
Most people in the detailing industry refer to the surface contamination of paint as oxidation. This baked on dirt and grime needs to be cleaned before waxing and in fact, regular application of Optimum Car Wax will keep these contaminants from adhering to paint.
What conditions should I avoid when using Optimum Car Wax?
In order to avoid baking the wax and making it difficult to move, it is best to apply Optimum Car Wax in the shade when the paint surface is cool to the touch. You can even apply Optimum Car Wax in a garage or other enclosed areas since it contains no chemical solvents whatsoever.
What should I do if I spray Optimum Car Wax on my black trim?
No problem. Since Optimum Car Wax has no abrasives, it will not cause damage to moldings or trims. In fact applying Optimum Car Wax on these surfaces will protect them as well.
Why is there some haziness after I wax my car with Optimum Car Wax?
Depending on the temperature and the humidity, you may see some haziness. Lightly buff the surface with a Cobra Microfiber Towel and you will see the increase in gloss right away.
Conditions to avoid:
Auto Surface temperatures below 55F or greater than 90F.
Heavy oxidation or dirt buildup
