Is it important to polish a car?

Waxing your car provides an additional layer of protection against the elements over and above that of traditional clear coating normally applied to the painted surfaces of the car. If youve ever washed a new car and noticed the water beading on the surface instead of creating a sheet of water, the surface has some type of wax already applied. Deciding whether or not your car needs a coat of wax can be determined by two things: check to see if the water no longer beads on the surface, or if your paint is faded or dull even after a good washing. In cases like this a good coat of wax and some polishing may be all you need to recover that showroom shine.
