Message: <blockquote data-quote="junbecks" data-source="post: 1064155047" data-attributes="member: 53916">the quickest way to explain is to break it down into what waxing is for and what polishing is for.Loosely decribed:waxing - is like putting on sunblock before you go out. It will protect your skin from harmful UV rays and getting tan. So waxing protects your car paint from sunblock as well as rain, bird poop, tree sap.But wax cannot last long, it quickly degrades so you have to apply frequently. (unless you dont drive the car at all). Polishing - can be split into 3 categories1. non-cleaning - these polishes leave a nice glossy look on your car, its like moisturizing your skin. Skin will be dry if you dont moisturize. Likewise, polishing will give its real shine. 2. cleaning - not only leaves a glossy look, but this type can remove dirt from the paint, really really small particles of dirt that you cannot see, but can feel and will affect the surface of the paint.(you see those white myvis that start to look yellowish? this step can make the myvi white again)3. compounding - like in the movie Inception "We have to go deeper." Stronger and more powerful than cleaning.This means that this type of polish is good for removing a very thin layer of paint, to make the paint smooth and removes scratches that are caused by roadside car washing. You look at those black cars under the sun? Do you see a lot of circles on the car? Those are from incorrectly washing the car. This step can remove those circles. Best done by a person with lots of experience. hope this helps you</blockquote>
