Wax on, Wax Off? Unveiling Common Car Care Myths

Love your car? Want to keep it looking showroom-fresh for years to come? Then understanding proper car care is essential. But navigating a world of often-conflicting advice can be confusing. Fear not, car enthusiasts! PureWax, New Zealand's go-to brand for premium car care products, is here to bust some common car care myths and set the record straight.

Myth #1: Waxing removes scratches.

- While a good coat of wax can enhance gloss and hide minor imperfections, it won't erase scratches. For deeper scratches, consider polishing compounds or professional touch-up services.


Myth #2: More wax is better.

- Over-waxing can actually leave a buildup, making the paint look cloudy. Apply wax in thin, even coats, following the product's specific instructions.


Myth #3: Car washes damage your car's paint.

- Regular car washes with high-quality car wash soap are essential for removing dirt and contaminants that can damage the paint. However, avoid harsh brushes and automated washes that might scratch the surface.


Myth #4: You only need to wash your car in summer.

- Road grime, bird droppings, and even winter salt can wreak havoc on your car's paint year-round. Wash your car regularly, especially after exposure to harsh elements.


Myth #5: All car waxes are created equal.

- Cheap waxes might offer temporary shine but lack the protective qualities of premium waxes like PureWax. Our formulas contain UV blockers and protective polymers that shield your car's paint from the harsh New Zealand sun and environmental damage.

By debunking these myths and using high-quality car care products like PureWax, you can ensure your car stays looking its best for miles to come. Visit our website or your nearest car care store to explore the PureWax range and find the perfect products for your car's needs. Happy waxing!
